Deliver Us From Evil

by David Baldacci

First published 2011

Shaw follows his target to the sun-drenched hills of Provence. Evan Waller has built his fortune trading anything that turns a profit, including human lives. Now Waller pursues a new venture that could kill millions across the globe. Shaw must stop him before the deal closes. But Shaw isn't alone in his pursuit. Reggie Campion works for a secret vigilante organization based in an old English estate. She has her own reasons for wanting Waller dead. Neither Shaw nor Reggie knows about the other's mission. The two operatives circle their prey through French villages and countryside. Waller proves more dangerous than either anticipated. As the businessman moves closer to finalizing his deadly transaction, Shaw and Reggie find themselves locked in their own battle of survival. One wrong move could cost millions of innocent lives. The hunt becomes personal when Shaw and Reggie discover their missions may be incompatible.
