About this listen

A Richard & Judy Book Club Pick

Immerse yourself in The 6:20 Man, a heart-racing thriller with an incredible ending, set in the world of high finance in New York. From David Baldacci, the number one bestselling author of Memory Man.


It's time to catch a killer . . .

Having survived combat tours in Afghanistan and Iraq and been decorated with medals, Travis Devine leaves the army in mysterious circumstances, under a cloud of suspicion. And at thirty-two years old, he’s swapping fighting the Taliban and Al-Qaeda for a different kind of danger in the cut-throat world of high finance.

His daily commute on the 6:20 a.m. train into New York’s financial district, to his new job as an analyst at the powerhouse investment bank Cowl and Comely, takes him into a world where greed, power, jealousy and ambition result in the financial abuse of the masses and the enrichment of an elite few.

When a close friend of Devine’s is found dead, the mysterious circumstances surrounding her death at Cowl and Comely compel him to investigate further. As he digs deeper, he discovers strange coincidences and unnerving truths.

As the deaths pile up, and the major players show their hands, Travis must question who he can trust – and who he must fight . . .

The action continues in The Edge, the second Travis Devine thriller from David Baldacci.

A master storyteller (Jane Harper, author of Exiles)

A common explanation from the experts on the news in recent times is "perfect storm". Whenever someone asks why something is happening. Be it the pandemic, climate disasters, or inflation. Fortunately for us the readers, unfortunately for our 6:20 Man. Travis Devine seems to have gotten himself into the calm center that is the eye of a perfect storm. A heart-pounding, leaving your palms sweaty thriller.

A perfect storm!

Up to standard but spoilt by a narrator who uses the same voice for multiple characters.

I am a big fan of Baldacci, especially his earlier work and characters. His latest work seems to be very hit and miss and unfortunately this one is a miss. The character is ok but not only does the story have little to no action but the finale seems to jump out of the book at you like you had missed something or skipped a chapter. This book could have easily worked better for an old, already established character such as John Puller or King & Maxwell. The story takes too long to get to know certain people and then doesn't go into detail about others, but with a main character that readers already know more time would have been spent on the story line. I am sorry to say this is one of Baldacci's poorer books (but not as bad as the Atlee Pine books) I would hope that any future titles for Travis Devine would work more on the story.

Not up to Baldacci's standard
