Gripping story but out of character? I have read a number of David Baldacci's books and really enjoyed the Camel Club, so I was looking forward to re-acquainting myself with the Camel Club characters.

My only, slight, criticism is that one or two of the devices used to tie up the loose ends at the finale are a little clumsy.
