NO TRUTH
Former Jersey City detective and single mother of two, Mickey Gibson, now works for global investigation company, ProEye, to track down assets of the wealthy who have tried to avoid their creditors. One day she gets a call from a colleague, Arlene Robinson, asking her to visit the home of a notorious arms dealer who has cheated some of ProEye’s clients in the past. Mickey arrives at the mansion to discover the body of a man hidden in a secret room.
NO LIMITS
It turns out that nothing is at it seems. The arms dealer did not exist, and nobody at ProEye knew of Arlene Robinson. Mickey had been tricked and now the cops were involved. The body was that of Harry Langhorne, who’d been in Witness Protection having had links with the mob.
NO FEAR
Now begins a cat-and-mouse showdown between hardened ex-cop, Mickey, and a woman with sociopathic tendencies who has no name and a mysterious past. She intends to get what she wants and people who get in her way will die. For Mickey to stop her, she must first discover her true identity and what damaged her all those years ago. And the truth behind why she selected Micky to become her nemesis . . .
Simply Lies is an intense thriller featuring Mickey Gibson, a former New Jersey detective, from the number one bestselling author David Baldacci.

I love listening to audio books
by Mr. W. Burgess
A slow and a little boring start, but gracious the book accelerated at an unbelievable pace. Twisting and turning with incredible speed. All the way to a starlit end Total magic. Hypnotised throughout. Baldacci is the master?.

I normally love Davids books but for me this one was a big disappointment. Mickey must be one of the most annoying people ever, and l’m afraid I skipped pages when she got too annoying. The other characters were pretty annoying too. So I am sorry David one disappointed reader!

Book never really caught my imagination.
This is a good author who can do better than this one.

Some tension to keep you reading, but also some stuff about bitcoin, non-fungible tokens and blockchains that I’m afraid I found dull.

A very good read

Good beach book that was easy but not so interesting that I was itching to get back to it every night.
by Chris Dunn
In my opinion one of today’s great authors. So easy to read and always with surprises within. Fantastic, highly recommended.
