Redemption

Memory Man Series, Book 5

De: David Baldacci

Narrado por: Kyf Brewer, Orlagh Cassidy

Detective Amos Decker discovers that a mistake he made as a rookie detective may have led to deadly consequences in the latest Memory Man thriller in David Baldacci's number-one New York Times best-selling series.

Amos Decker and his FBI partner Alex Jamison are visiting his hometown of Burlington, Ohio, when he's approached by an unfamiliar man. But he instantly recognizes the man's name: Meryl Hawkins. He's the first person Decker ever arrested for murder back when he was a young detective. Though a dozen years in prison have left Hawkins unrecognizably aged and terminally ill, one thing hasn't changed: He maintains he never committed the murders. Could it be possible that Decker made a mistake all those years ago? As he starts digging into the old case, Decker finds a startling connection to a new crime that he may be able to prevent, if only he can put the pieces together quickly enough....

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Baldacci turns up the suspense and surprises at a rapid pace in Redemption without sacrificing character or story. With the personal stakes and the steep learning curve that Decker must overcome to find justice, the narrative carries a heavier emotional impact. Essentially, this is another great novel from a master storyteller." (Associated Press)

"Staying true to its title, Redemption is a riveting thriller, as relentlessly suspenseful as it is blisteringly original. Baldacci may be an old hand at this but his grasp has never been stronger." (Providence Journal)

"Little by little he thaws the case out, exposing a town full of secrets that have far-reaching, international ramifications. Redemption's unusual plot will have you wanting to step back and say 'wait a minute.' But then you remember, this is David Baldacci, the master storyteller, and you keep turning the pages." (The Florida Times Union)

Kept me wondering what’s next.

I wish the book was longer. I really like the character Amos Decker and the whole series.

Great story

I’ve listened to all the Memory Man stories to this point. I’ve enjoyed every one and always look forward to the next.

Love Amos Decker

Baldacci has created another memorable Memory Man tale. Every detective should have Decker Memory!! Hgrest story!

Another wonderful story

Another wonderful story full of action and investigators services by Decker and team. As usual, I enjoy the stories, but it almost seems like he’s in his old world and he figures out everything by himself but again the killing of people it’s it’s really disappointing. Nevertheless, I feel that you just the story and it makes things are interesting towards the end.

How things can happen right under your nose. And, you might not see them.

I like Decker showing his weaknesses and humanness. And, his willingness to accept help this time

I'm Batman...

Overall I liked the story even though it became a little predictable well before the end of the book. I also don't like that Kyf Brewer decided to give Amos a grunty Batman/New York accent that doesn't match any of the previous audiobooks. Orlagh does a great job as usual, even though she continues to give too many of her characters a Southern accent, but I've come to expect that now that I've listened to three Baldacci series. I would rank this as my least favorite Memory Man series book but it wasn't awful. I hope the next one gets back to the full FBI team that has been underutilized in this series.

New voice of decker

New Decker reader/character; noticeable and slightly uncomfortable cadence in early chapters. I thought the previous reader fit better with the “story character”

Weak

not as good or as complex as the first four of the series.. far more predictable....

Baldacci being Baldacci!

Good listen and well performed. Lots of twists and turns. Archer is one of my favorites. Kept me interested throughout!

I love all of the Amos Deck books

I love that Deck is so smart, but even more, I love his moral compass.
