Edge

A nice follow-up to The 6:20 Man. I even liked this one better, because the scale wasn't so ridiculous. Everything happens in a small town in Maine. I see this being turned into an entertaining 8-10 episode show. Baldacci delivers again on a main character who who is just slightly silly in the expanse of his competence. But as someone who picks up the new Jack Reacher novel each year I feel like I should not complain. This book has a detective story with moments of explosive action and a clumsy resolution, neither the best detective book, nor the best action. But still a nice read, if you're into that sort of thing. This book can be picked up without reading The 6:20 Man.
