The Innocent

The Innocent by David Baldacci 422 pp.

Will Robie is a professional hitman who works for the Feds. He does the jobs he is given until the night he refuses to kill the target he is assigned to kill. When the target is killed in front of him by a sniper, Robie finds himself running for his life without knowing why he has become a target. He ends up saving the life of a teenage girl whose parents were murdered and things get more convoluted...and dangerous. He ends up involved in the investigation of a bus explosion and multiple murders while dodging the unknown assailants who are trying to kill him. I've found Baldacci's books to be hit and miss. This is one of the better ones. While the situation is a bit far-fetched the characters, dialogue, action, and plot twists keep the story moving at a fast pace.
