About this ebook
A bestselling Richard & Judy Book Club pick, The 6:20 Man is a heart-racing thriller with an incredible ending, set in the world of high finance in New York, from the number one bestselling author David Baldacci.
It's time to catch a killer . . .
Having survived combat tours in Afghanistan and Iraq and been decorated with medals, Travis Devine leaves the army in mysterious circumstances, under a cloud of suspicion. And at thirty-two years old, he’s swapping fighting the Taliban and Al-Qaeda for a different kind of danger in the cut-throat world of high finance.
His daily commute on the 6:20 a.m. train into New York’s financial district, to his new job as an analyst at the powerhouse investment bank Cowl and Comely, takes him into a world where greed, power, jealousy and ambition result in the financial abuse of the masses and the enrichment of an elite few.
When a close friend of Devine’s is found dead, the mysterious circumstances surrounding her death at Cowl and Comely compel him to investigate further. As he digs deeper, he discovers strange coincidences and unnerving truths.
As the deaths pile up, and the major players show their hands, he must question who he can trust – and who he must fight . . .
The action continues in The Edge, the second Travis Devine thriller from David Baldacci.

okay so far. A good vibe to it, with the main character doing most of the running. Have only read the sample but at 99p I will obviously delve deeper. The author can be a bit hit and miss with new characters. He seems however to have nailed it with this guy. ex, military etc. I just hope that there are more along the road to allow this guy to come into his own.

My first David B book which I enjoyed, Had me up the garden path a few times trying to guess the suspect.
