Less than usual

Saving Faith by David Baldacci; 1999; 451 pages; Warner Books, New York, NY; 0-446-52577-4; checked out from Multnomah County Library, Midland; 6/16/19-6/26/19

Lee Adams, Private Investigator, is hired by an unknown client who offers him a large sum of money to follow a woman.  He follows her, saves her from an assassination attempt, falls in love with her, sees her get shot, lies to Congress, and brings down the number two man in the CIA.  All in a days work.  A rather pedestrian effort from David Baldacci, it reads like a movie of the week from the last century.  This is the first time I haven't been completely engrossed by a novel by David Baldacci.

6/10
