Synopsis

With a master spy and the U. S. government after him, former CIA assassin Oliver Stone is America's most wanted man-but escaping D.C. won't protect him from a lethal world of political corruption in this #1 New York Times bestselling thriller.

Known by his alias, "Oliver Stone," John Carr is the most wanted man in America. With two pulls of the trigger, the men who destroyed Stone's life and kept him in the shadows were finally silenced.

But his freedom comes at a steep price: The assassinations he carried out prompt the highest levels of the U.S. government to unleash a massive manhunt. Yet behind the scenes, master spy Macklin Hayes is playing a very personal game of cat and mouse. He, more than anyone else, wants John Carr dead. With their friend and unofficial leader in hiding, the members of the Camel Club risk everything to save him. As the hunters close in, Stone's flight from the demons of his past will take him from the power corridors of Washington, D.C., to the coal-mining town of Divine, Virginia--and into a world every bit as bloody and lethal as the one he left behind.

This has been an exciting series. Each time I have learned more about Oliver Stone. It may be the Camel Club but there are no dry places in this story. Ride again with the club!!

Goodreads review by Karen on June 01, 2024

When considering my favorite series by David Baldacci, I believe The Camel Club is it for me. So, when I was making a recommendation to a fellow Goodreads friend, about which Baldacci series to start with, I was surprised to find that there were more than 3 books in the series. For whatever reason,......more

Goodreads review by Paul on January 19, 2025

Last of the Camel Club thrillers? DIVINE JUSTICE, the fourth in Baldacci's wildly popular Camel Club series, picks up where the quite literal cliff hanger at the conclusion of STONE COLD left us. Oliver Stone, having just assassinated Carter Gray, head of the CIA, and Roger Simpson, who had raised St......more

This will trigger a reaction from Oliver Stone which will make him become the most sought-after man in the USA. Oliver says goodbye to the Camel Club and......more

Goodreads review by Una on January 19, 2016

While the writing is clear the plot is over convoluted. The protagonist doesn't have a cape, but emerges from most situations on top of the heap. The end was predictable. Nice characters.......more

Goodreads review by Laura on March 10, 2010
