About this listen

Intense thrills at a breakneck pace, The Edge is the killer sequel to David Baldacci's runaway number one bestseller The 6:20 Man, featuring elite undercover operative Travis Devine (The 6:20 Man).

‘One of the world’s thriller masters’ – Daily Mail

A Brutal Murder


Retired from the Army’s most prestigious special ops force, Travis Devine is now part of an elite undercover team in Homeland Security. But when he’s brought in by agent Emerson Campbell to investigate the murder of a young woman, he quickly learns that this case is more personal than most.

A Small Town

Four days earlier Jennifer Silkwell was found dead on the rocks of the Maine coastline. A high ranking analyst for the CIA, she had knowledge of national security secrets that would be valuable to a number of enemies. And her senator father once saved Emerson Campbell’s life.

A Big Secret

Knowing how much is riding on the case, Devine packs his bags and heads for the small town of Putnam in Maine. But small towns can harbour big secrets, and not everyone wants to share them with outsiders. Not when there’s a killer on the loose . . .

Killer twists. Heroes to believe in. Trust Baldacci.

A captivating crime story that is very difficult to put down. Hoping for a number 3

Loved it excited for the next book already!! Nice to see a romantic relationship explored.

Good little story, likeable charachters, well written with good structure, descriptive and easy to visulise. As with the prequel the theme is macho men and vulnerable beautiful women, but can't say I didn't enjoy it. I think this series would translate well to films. Will listen to the next one, mainly for escapism which is what I'm looking for.

All American hero.

Brilliant

The different voices made the whole book come alive. I miss the Camel Club humor and strong lines in the Baldacci books. King & Maxwell were great too as all his books from around that period. The characters are played so well in this book and the previous in this series that I will buy story number 3 as well.

The voice actors make this book fantastic
