Atlee Pine, an FBI special agent assigned to the remote wilds of the western United States. Ever since her twin sister was abducted by a notorious serial killer at age five, Atlee has spent her life hunting down those who hurt others. And she's the best at it. She could be one of the Bureau's top criminal profilers, if she didn't prefer catching criminals in the vast wilderness of the West to climbing the career ladder in the D.C. office. Her chosen mission is a lonesome one--but that suits her just fine. Now, Atlee is called in to investigate the mutilated carcass of a mule found in the Grand Canyon--and hopefully, solve the disappearance of its rider. But this isn't the only recent disappearance. In fact, it may be just the first clue, the key to unraveling a rash of other similar missing persons cases in the canyon.

Review of 'Long road to mercy' on 'Goodreads'

I enjoyed this book. Atlee is an interesting character as are the supporting characters and her building relationships to them. I thought Baldacci did a nice job of creating a heavily contemporary political thriller without taking political sides, a difficult task in our current climate. It's clear that Baldacci has big plans for this series as the biggest surprise of this novel is that the plot doesn't really revolve around Pine's biggest personal tragedy, which is heavily described in all of the published materials on this book.
