When Walter Nash is recruited by the FBI to help bring down a global crime network his life is turned completely upside down in this thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author David Baldacci.

Walter Nash is a sensitive, intelligent and kindhearted man. He has a wife and a daughter and a very high-level position at Sybaritic Investments, where his innate skills and dogged tenacity have carried him to the top of the pyramid in his business career. Despite never going on grand adventures, and always working too many hours, he has a happy and upscale life with his family.

However, following his estranged Vietnam-veteran father’s funeral, Nash is unexpectedly approached by the FBI in the middle of the night. They have an important request: become their inside man to expose an enterprise that is laundering large sums of money through Sybaritic. At the top of this illegal operation is Victoria Steers, an international criminal mastermind that the FBI has been trying to bring down for years.

Nash has little choice but to accept the FBI’s demands and try to bring Steers and her partners to justice. But when Steers discovers that Nash is working with the FBI, she turns the tables on him in a way he never could have contemplated. And that forces Nash to take the ultimate step both to survive and to take his revenge: He must become the exact opposite of who he has always been.

And even that may not be enough.

Review:

Intense, sharp, and action-packed!

Nash Falls is a sinister, engrossing thriller that introduces Walter Nash, a highly successful acquisitions executive who, following the death of his estranged father, suddenly finds himself working with the FBI when it becomes apparent that something deeply illicit is happening at the investment firm where he works, and he’s quickly drawn into a dangerous web where powerful forces will stop at nothing to silence him, including kidnapping his daughter and destroying his reputation.

The writing is crisp and controlled. The characters are astute, driven, and multi-layered. And the intricate plot keeps you fully engrossed from start to finish, with all the twists, turns, deception, revelations, corruption, power plays, red herrings, violence, and murder.

In case you couldn’t tell, I absolutely loved this novel, and once again, Nash Falls proves that when it comes to crafting exceptionally complex, fast-paced, and expertly plotted crime fiction with unforgettable characters and nefarious storylines, Baldacci remains one of the very best.
