From a #1 New York Times bestselling author, America's best hitman must rescue a teenage runaway and investigate her parents' murder.
It begins with a hit gone wrong. Robie is dispatched to eliminate a target unusually close to home in Washington, D.C. But something about this mission doesn't seem right to Robie, and he does the unthinkable--he refuses to pull the trigger. Now, Robie becomes a target himself and is on the run.
Fleeing the scene, Robie crosses paths with a fourteen-year-old runaway from a foster home. But she isn't an ordinary runaway--her parents were murdered, and her own life is in danger. Against his professional training, Robie rescues her and finds he can't walk away. He needs to help her.
The more Robie learns about the girl, the more he's convinced she is at the center of a vast cover-up, one that involves unimaginable levels of power.
Now, Robie may have to step out of the shadows in order to save this girl's life...and perhaps his own.

Interesting read. Quite a few unanticipated events. Can’t wait to delve into the next book and eventually complete the series.
Wonderful book. Exciting and quick moving. David Baldacci is one of the very best authors I read. Anytime I see a book by him,I know I will have a great read.
Always knew about Baldacci but for some reason never read him. Finally read Absolute Power and I was sold. Super well done. So of course Goodreads suggested this and I enjoyed it immensely. Good oD early nineties action hero with the action feel. Great page turner with fun twists and turns. Highly recommend. Looking forward to the next Robie adventure.
I had forgotten how much I love this series. It was great to go back to the first in the series. Non-stop action with Will being thrown into caring for a young teenager girl. Will always is working on saving everyone.
Amazon said I bought this book 10 years ago. I remember bits and pieces. Tell you what it was worth reading again. I forgot how good Baldacci and Will Robie are. I am going to reread the whole series. You shoul too.
