I am always a little wary when it comes to David Baldacci because I am never quite sure what is going to be served up. However I’ve just finished reading “Deliver Us From Evil” and I really enjoyed this book.
The book features Shaw the super spy who has been sent after human trafficking and arms dealer Evan Waller. The mission is pretty simple – snatch Waller and put him out of business – permanently.
Things however get a little complicated because somebody else is looking to put Waller out of business. A group of vigilantes operating out of England are on a mission to hunt down former war criminals and make them atone for their crimes. Waller it turns out has a murderous history in the KGB and Regina Campion intends being the one to make sure he pays.
But Waller is no wilting violent and doesn’t play nicely with others. To prove this point, early on in the book he tortures a terrorist who tries to double-cross him and it is not pretty.
After Shaw and Campion both fail to take out Waller, they begin contemplating what life on the run will be like with a madman hunting them across the globe.
This is one of those books which keeps you guessing to the end and there is a nice twist at the end.
We rated this book a 4 out of 5 and would thoroughly recommend it if you like a spy / action thriller. Baldacci at his best!
