Split second, David Baldacci

Split second, David Baldacci

Michelle Maxwell has just wrecked her promising career at the Secret Service. Against her instincts, she let a presidential candidate out of her sight for the briefest moment and the man whose safety was her responsibility vanished into thin air. Sean King knows how the younger agent feels. Eight years earlier, the hard-charging Secret Service agent allowed his attention to be diverted for a split second.  And the candidate he was protecting was gunned down before his eyes. Now Michelle and Sean are about to see their destinies converge.

Drawn into a maze of lies, secrets, and deadly coincidences, the two discredited agents uncover a shocking truth: that the separate acts of violence that shattered their lives were really a long time in the making – and are a long way from over...

Primera entrega de la saga King and Maxwell y me ha encantado. Historia muy interesante, trama muy bien hilada y personajes atractivos.

David Baldacci me ha enganchado con esta novela y (a excepción de uno que no he podido encontrar aún) ya tengo el resto de los títulos de la saga en espera, guardados como oro en paño, como a esos libros especiales que sabes que te van a gustar mucho y cuya lectura quieres reservar para momentos en que, bien sea porque la necesites, bien porque apetezca algo especial, quieres caminar sobre seguro. Creo que King and Maxwell son de esos libros: de esos que sabes que no te van a defraudar.
