The Sixth Man by David Baldacci

September 29, 2011, South Amboy

Paperback 2011, 416 pages.

This book is about how two agents-turned-Private Investigators got involved in an attempt, by the Head of Homeland Security and a certain defense contractor, to destroy a competitor defense contractor.  It involves some (to me) far-fetched technology involving one single Analyst doing his job with all available information given to him.  Nonetheless, the plot is quite well thought out, and the action, especially towards the end, quite gripping.

One complaint is the book started a bit slowly, and the attempts at humor were a bit contrived.

Overall a good book.
