Melvin Mars awaits his fate on Death Row. He was one of America's most promising football stars until, aged twenty-years-old, he was arrested and convicted for the murder of his parents just as he was due to begin a very lucrative contract with the NFL. When Amos Decker, newly appointed special agent with the FBI, hears the news that Melvin was saved in the final seconds before his execution because someone has confessed to the killings, he persuades his boss to allow him to carry out an investigation into the Mars murders.
Baldacci writes entertaining books. I skipped the first Amos Decker book for some reason, but that was not a problem.
I liked that Decker used to be the football hero but is now quite fat. A nice change to the usual superhero this kind of book features. We'll see how fit he'll be in the next one.
The story could have been a bit more dense, but it was still a fast read and I enjoyed it.
