I just finished reading this book and I have to say that I really enjoyed it. My husband bought the book for me for my birthday, knowing that I am a fan of David Baldacci. However, I have a wee boy, which has severely restricted my reading capabilities (time-wise). This is the first book in ages that I have read that actually drew me in and made me want to keep reading at any opportunity. The story-line is unique and deals with current issues. There is enough adventure and intrigue to ensure that you keep turning the pages. A few of the characters are a little thin and predictable, and I found the premise of the story a little similar to the Andy McNab series. However, overall I rate this book as a good read - especially for someone who has travelled Europe and will recognise a lot of the locations.

The Whole Truth is an idiotically entertaining if rather straight faced thriller involving global conspiracy with catastrophic repercussions and a mismatched cast of characters who all seem set to collide head first as time ticks relentlessly away leaving no room for error. Baldacci's style is serious but oddly compelling with plenty of twists, posssibly too many but lets not quibble.
