Deliver Us From Evil

By David Baldacci
Read by Ron McLarty

        Shaw is a secret agent, of sorts. In The Whole Truth he and journalist Katie James worked to stop a man creating wars to make money. This time Shaw is determined to deliver the US from evil. The evil is a man named Waller. Waller sells children into prostitution and now looking to sell nuclear material to Islamic fundamentalists. Shaw’s boss wants to convince Waller it’s in his best interest to give them the info on the fundamentalists. Shaw quickly discovers Waller is an evil man with no interest in coming clean.

There is another group interested in Waller, too. But they know him as Kuchin, a Ukrainian war criminal. A woman named Regina Campion is sent to live next door to him in Provence. She and Shaw meet up and sparks fly. Neither is aware of the other’s interest in the predator next door. When Shaw and Reggie get too close to Kuchin everything is revealed. The action really picks up and at some points it gets really gross.

Baldacci makes mention of Kate from The Whole Truth. Shaw seems to have met his match in Reggie but still haunted by Kate and how he left her. Deliver Us from Evil is an international thriller full of intense scenes and strong content. Listen to both and get double the international entertainment.

Ron McLarty is a veteran at narrating. He has the perfect voice for suspense.
