Publisher's summary

From the author of The 6:20 Man, “Memory Man” Amos Decker—an FBI consultant with perfect recall—delves into a bewildering double homicide in this thriller in David Baldacci's #1 New York Times bestselling series.

When Amos Decker is called to South Florida to investigate a double homicide, the case appears straightforward: A federal judge and her bodyguard have been found dead, the judge’s face sporting a blindfold with two eye holes crudely cut out, a clear sign that she’d made one too many enemies over her years on the bench.

What at first seems cut and dry is anything but: Not only did the judge have more enemies than Decker can count—from violent gang members, drug dealers, and smugglers to a resentful ex-husband—but the bodyguard presents additional conundrums that muddy the waters even further. Who was the real target in this vicious attack?

Meanwhile, Decker must contend with a series of unsettling changes, including a new partner—Special Agent Frederica “Freddie” White—and a devastating event that brings Decker’s own tragic past back to the present . . . and forces him to reckon with his future.

As potential witnesses start disappearing, Decker and White are inexorably pulled down a twisted tunnel of secrets, crimes, and scandal—at the end of which lies Decker’s deadliest threat yet.

love the series

I've listened to each in the series. tad slow to start as repeating story line for those who failed to read the previous books in the series. I enjoy the main character as well as the many twists toward the end

Alvin and Liz review

Great plot and story in general. There seemed to be a big increase in strong language which was a big detractor for us. Does there really have to be that many F***s and s***s in the dialogue?

He never disappoints

I had to slow myself down and savor the story. It is good but too much profanity for me which is the reason I listened a little at a time. I was satisfied with the ending though

Great Series

Long Shadows might be the best Memory Man book yet, but dib since there’s so much time between new books in the series, I may just not be remembering others I’ve read. Come on Baldacci pick up the pace I want more memory man more often.

I love all of the Memory man books, but this one was far and away the best. Love the new partner and her back story, loved the mysteries in this one, Grabbed me from the first scene and didn’t let go.
