Walk the Wire (Memory Man, #6) (Amos Decker)

by David Baldacci

While this was not my favorite Amos Decker book, I definitely enjoyed it. Anne and I buddy read this and both gave it 4 stars/hearts. I'm really glad there's another book coming because if this were the last book in the series I would be disappointed. But as just another in the series development, it's good!

The mystery was a weird one - so much going on that didn't feel connected but also couldn't be sure that it wasn't, in part because the FBI was giving so little information. But hey, at least Amos is finally working an approved case lol! There was some unexpected personal development with Amos, thanks to running into his brother-in-law, and I always enjoy seeing Amos growing (particularly emotionally). The case(s) ended up being fairly tragic and I was a little heartbroken for one character in particular.

There's a crossover with Will Robie, a character from a series by David Baldacci that I haven't read before and I actually feel like I was missing something by not having read that series. Maybe not, but I felt like those characters played a pretty big role in this book and while I'm sure that was super cool for those who have read that series, I wasn't sure that I wasn't missing something in terms of their characters and overall roles. I was already planning on reading more David Baldacci after enjoying this series so much, but now I know which one I'll be going to next. Will Robie here I come (soon lol)!

I continue to love the narration for this series. They've done a really great job with the co-narration by Kyf Brewer and Orlagh Cassidy voicing everything together, with Kyf doing the male parts and Orlagh doing the female parts. I really wish more books were narrated this way! Can't wait for #7 this fall (I think).
