The Escape
Autor David Baldaccien Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 noi 2014
It's a prison unlike any other. Military discipline rules. Its security systems are unmatched. None of its prisoners dream of escaping. They know it's impossible...until now.
John Puller's older brother, Robert, was convicted of treason. His inexplicable escape from prison makes him the most wanted criminal in the country. Some in the government believe that John Puller represents their best chance at capturing Robert alive, and so Puller must bring in his brother to face justice.
But Puller quickly discovers that his brother is pursued by others who don't want him to survive. Puller is in turn pushed into an uneasy, fraught partnership with another agent, who may have an agenda of her own.
They dig more deeply into the case together, and Puller finds that not only are her allegiances unclear, but there are troubling details about his brother's conviction...and someone out there doesn't want the truth to ever come to light. As the nationwide manhunt for Robert grows more urgent, Puller's masterful skills as an investigator and strengths as a fighter may not be enough to save his brother--or himself.

Recenzii
"One
of
the
most
compelling
characters
in
David
Baldacci's
thrillers
is
John
Puller,
a
crackerjack
investigator
of
military
crimes...Twists
and
turns
come
fast
and
furious
in
the
best
Baldacci
tradition.The
Escapeis
much
more
than
a
thriller.
It's
a
moving
tale
of
two
military
brothers
and
their
father,
a
retired
Army
general
and
fighting
legend
now
suffering
from
dementia.
Emotionally
intense,The
Escapeis
Baldacci's
best
to
date."—Associated
Press
"[In his] clever third John Puller thriller...Baldacci handles the complex plot with consummate ease as the Pullers navigate nearly endless surprises."—Publisher's Weekly
"A heck of an opening chapter, guaranteed to jettison readers into hours of addictive reading...Baldacci's last few books have been among the best in his long, busy career, andThe Escapestands near the top for sheer adrenalin-fueled entertainment. It's alarmingly topical, too, taking us into the intelligence community and raising questions about privacy rights in the age of government surveillance and other buzz-worthy issues (no spoilers here). Indeed, the crime at the center ofThe Escapecould have been pulled from recent newspaper headlines. Who says thrillers have to be the stuff of escapist fantasies?"—Richmond Times-Dispatch
