The Sixth Man - David Baldacci

 

This is a Sean and Michelle book. Apparently this is a thing. Not a thing I've come across before though. I have read quite a few David Baldaccis before but not one with them.

I like David Baldacci. His books are always entertaining and never stupid. As in, you always get the motivation and you are never shouting, "why tf are you doing that??!"

This one meets all expectations. Their friends, a lawyer, asks them to help investigate a serial killer who is in high security jail but he, the lawyer, gets murdered before they can meet.

A classic who-to-trust mystery with twists and turns aplenty. Kept me interested until the end. Which is all you can ask really!

She went to art college in Cambridge in 1965 and then St Martin's in London, before setting up a shop Swanky Modes, selling their own designs, with some friends. She spent a lot of her time ...
