The Camel Club

David Baldacci

Jacalyn Boggs

I happened to have this in unabridged audio and decided to listen to it as I drove around the VA countryside for way too many miles this month. Let me tell you, it was a fantastic read. Kind of interesting when I'd pass through some of the places mentioned in the book.

I love a good political intrigue story. Growing up in the greater DC area, I love to hear a good conspiracy theory and whatnot. This was definitely an interesting one. I liked the angle the author took where there was not so much a conspiracy as a lesson to be learned by not only America but by the whole world.

I recommend The Camel Club to anyone who likes a well written book. I'm so excited to learn there's a whole series here! I look forward to one day reading more.

After witnessing a shocking murder, four conspiracy theorists team up with a Secret Service agent to uncover the government corruption that threatens to cause an international terrorism crisis in this New York Times bestselling thriller. Welcome to THE CAMEL CLUB. Existing at the fringes of Washington, D.C., the Club consists of four eccentric members. Led by a mysterious man known as "Oliver Stone," they study conspiracy theories, current events, and the machinations of government to discover the "truth" behind the country's actions. Their efforts bear little fruit--until the group witnesses a shocking murder...and becomes embroiled in an astounding, far-reaching conspiracy. Now the Club must join forces with a Secret Service agent to confront one of the most chilling spectacles ever to take place on American soil-an event that may trigger the ultimate war between two different worlds. And all that stands in the way of this apocalypse is five unexpected heroes.
