About This Item
New York, N. Y., U.S.A.: Warner Books Inc, 2003. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. As New/As New. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. It was only a SPLIT SECOND--but that's all it took for Secret Service agent Sean King's attention to wander and his "protectee," third-party presidential candidate Clyde Ritter, to die. King retired from the Service in disgrace, and now, eight years later, balances careers as a lawyer and a part-time deputy sheriff in a small Virginia town. Then he hears the news: Once again, a third-party candidate has been taken out of the presidential race--abducted right under the nose of Secret Service agent Michelle Maxwell. King and Maxwell form an uneasy alliance, and their search for answers becomes a bid for redemption as they delve into the government's Witness Protection Program and the mysterious past of Clyde Ritter's dead assassin. But the truth is never quite what it seems, and these two agents have learned that even one moment looking in the wrong direction can be deadly. Full of shocking twists and turns, and introducing a villian to rival Jackson in Baldacci's THE WINNERer, SPLIT SECOND is the first book in the Sean King and Michelle Maxwell series. As new, unread, first edition, first printing, in fine, mylar-protected dust jacket.[Not remainder-marked or price-clipped) M68/M52
Synopsis
SPLIT SECOND is a tale of two disgraced Secret Service agents racing against time to find the common thread that connects a series of assassinations and abductions."Played" and misled by suspects, the duo search for answers.

I love David Baldacci books. I've read alot and they seemed to get better with each one but this one wasn't as good as I had expected. Not that it's not a good book but I guess I hold him up to a higher scale because of his other books. The camel club books are the best. I'm already planning to pre order the new one coming in November!
