Walk the Wire by David Baldacci
In which the
main characters of the Memory Man series, Amos Decker and Alex Jamison, team up
with the main characters from another series, Will Robie and Jessica
Reel. Decker and his partner get sent to London, North Dakota to look into
the death of a woman, without any background information about her or why they
are being asked to solve the crime. She was found by a man hunting a
wolf. The town is embroiled in a fracking boom. Then the man who
found the corpse comes-up missing. Decker discovers a clue relegated to a
minor section of the autopsy report. Then another woman goes missing and
when Decker returns to the house of the missing man, he finds the woman dead in
a shed. When he confronts the part-time coroner, the man commits
suicide. Then one of the two richest men in town buys the other out and
is found dead in his car, an apparent suicide. Then the other rich man is
found in his office, an apparent suicide. Decker doesn’t like
coincidences. He is followed into an alley and is tackled, by Robie,
which saves his life. They team up to run down what looks like the real
motive for the murders, busting up an attempt to poison everyone in a
hundred-mile radius. Only they didn’t kill the people Decker is investigating.
