In The Independent Weekly

Published by Office Staff under Print, Web

David’s latest novel, True Blue, is reviewed in an article in the Adelaide [Australia] Independent Weekly.

I didn’t enjoy this opus as much as I have Baldacci’s previous works. I didn’t think the characterisation particularly convincing.

In The Hill

Published by Office Staff under Print, Web

David is the subject of an interview article titled “20 Questions: David Baldacci” in The Hill.

David Baldacci has mastered the political thriller. Several of his 20 books take readers into the White House, Congress, CIA headquarters and other Washington power spots. His new book, True Blue, once again uses Washington as a backdrop. But this time he looks into local Washington and what it takes to be a police officer in the nation’s capital.

In the Colorado Springs Gazette

Published by Office Staff under Print, Web

David is listed among other “thriller champions” in a review of Alexander McCall Smith’s The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency in the Colorado Springs Gazette.

Some books are like a jolt of espresso; they get heart rates up and pages flying. These books certainly have their appeal, as evidenced by the great success of their authors. I’m thinking of thriller champions like Harlan Coben, David Baldacci and Michael Connelly.
