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 . . .

Great story

Great story, great narration. As a character, Shaw is a cross between Puller and Robie. I can see where Baldacci was going with him. Shame he only appears in a few books.

Entertaining read

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.

Fantastic Book

This has got to be my favourite Baldacci book what is truth is it something manufactured or something real? In many ways s visionary book and a fable for the reality we now face and it’s a great story which kept me engaged throughout and that’s the truth

David Baldacci doesn't cease to enthrall!

I have just finished both The Whole Truth and Deliver us from Evil.....for three days, I was glued to both, while painting! I have now read all of his books. He needs to write a little faster without losing the superb story telling ability he has. Thank you, Mr David Baldacci! Ever since I started with Absolute Power, which was phenominally gripping, I haven't been able to pass a single book by. I need to add True Blue as well. Just so gripping!
