About this listen

The Whole Truth by David Baldacci is a terrifying global thriller that delivers all the twists and turns, emotional drama, unforgettable characters and can't-stop-listening pacing that Baldacci fans expect – and still goes beyond anything he’s written before.

I NEED A WAR . . .
A powerful arms dealer
Nicolas Creel is a man on a mission. As the head of a major arms vendor, he is plotting a ruthless plan to supercharge his company’s profits by triggering a new cold war – and he won’t let anyone stand in his way.

An intelligence agent
Meet Shaw, a man with no first name: a shadow operative working for a multinational organization that seeks to keep the world safe from men like Creel.

An ambitious journalist
Desperate to rebuild her disgraced reputation and rise to the top of her profession, Katie James gets the break of a lifetime when she finds herself on the same path as the mysterious Shaw.
Drawn into stopping Creel’s terrifying plans, Shaw and James face a catastrophic threat that could change the world as we know it . . .

Critic reviews

When Baldacci is on fire, nobody can touch him.
High-stakes action, shadowy government agencies, and [a] neo-Cold War backdrop . . . Baldacci pushes his plot ahead at such a blistering pace.
Delicious . . . [a] roller-coaster adventure . . . an utterly enjoyable escapist page-turner.

Most relevant
Very enjoyable altogether, likeable characters, thrilling storyline. Great narration - well worth a listen. Has the making of a great series - shame there are only two books about A. Shaw’s escapades.
