Book Reviews of Stone Cold
Book Review: Third in the Camel Club Series
Summary: 4 Stars
David Baldacci attended law school at the University of Virginia, and went on to work as a trial lawyer, and later as a corporate lawyer, in Washington, D.C. He is now a full-time writer whose best selling novels include Absolute Power, Total Control, The Winner, The Simple Truth and Saving Faith. He lives in Virginia with his wife and two children.
The publication date of a new David Baldacci novel is for me a cause for celebration and if the said novel is one of the Camel Club series, well I wouldn't exactly be doing backwards somersaults, but you know what I mean. I enjoyed the first two in the series so much that I was almost afraid that Stone Cold would not live up to my expectations and this is from someone who is not really into crime thrillers.
Well to be honest, I was a little disappointed, maybe I had hyped it up too much in my own mind. It was still a good read but not as good as I had expected. Maybe it was the fact that it was revisiting an old plot, I'm not sure. Oliver Stone and the Camel Club are back and this new novel revisits Casino king Jerry Bagger, who appeared in The Collectors. Yes he's the guy who was conned out of millions of dollars by Annabelle Conroy. She managed to set up one of the most outrageous scams ever pulled on any casino. The owners of casinos know all of the dodges ever invented for conning them out of their money and they also have the most sophisticated equipment, cameras etc. to stop this kind of thing happening, but Bagger didn't see this one coming.
Well Bagger is now hunting Annabelle and if he catches up with her it isn't going to be pretty. It is going to take all the resources of the Camel Club to keep Annabelle safe and maybe even that isn't going to be enough . . .
