Product Description
Following the instant # 1 New York Times bestseller Stone Cold, Oliver Stone and the Camel Club return in David Baldacci's most surprising thriller yet . . .
Known by his alias, "Oliver Stone," John Carr is the most wanted man in America. With two pulls of the trigger, the men who destroyed Stone's life and kept him in the shadows were finally silenced.
But his freedom comes at a steep price: The assassinations he carried out prompt the highest levels of the U.S. government to unleash a massive manhunt. Behind the scenes, master spy Macklin Hayes is playing a very personal game of cat and mouse. He, more than anyone, wants Stone dead.
With their friend and unofficial leader in hiding, the members of the Camel Club risk everything to save him. Now, as the hunters close in, Stone's flight from the demons of his past will take him from the power corridors of Washington, D.C., to the small, isolated coal-mining town of Divine, Virginia-and into a world every bit as lethal as the one he left behind.

Things are winding down (I hope) January 5, 2009
With the Camel Club, Dvid Baldacci hit on the gizmo that would set his novels apart. As events developed, he found it necessary to kill off one of the original members and add two-more or less, and now he has mated up Oliver with the owner of a mansion in the Virginia hill country. As events worked out in this nove , we can envision one more episode squeezing out, but Baldacci seems to be falling back into his earlier weakness of telegraphing actions and conclusions. Now this is a pretty good piece of thriller - could use about forty pages of editing - but has an appealing set of events and an interesting plot. (A nice twist is the idea of disappearing people inside maximum security prisons under assumed names.) Nonetheless, the club is winding down. If for no other reason, Vietnam era special forces operatives are getting a bit paunchy. Also, the back story is getting more deeply entangled in the present and so does not seem sustainable for long.
 current/ January 4, 2009
I have read all the Camel Club books. Its a good interesting story with a wide range of characters and of course a little conspiracy thrown in to keep you guessing..
Divine Justice January 4, 2009
Another interesting book in the Camel club series altho I didn't enjoy this one as much as some of the others. The idea of a corrupt prison warden with a drug operation ongoing seemed too far fetched for me. I still really enjoy Baldacci's books.
 Shocked by the Number of Typos January 4, 2009

I have always enjoyed the books in the Camel Club series and while I enjoyed the plot of this one, I was highly disappointed by the amount of typos. They were inexcusable and shocking. Baldacci needs to work a little closer with an editor and depend a little less on spell check.
Justice at Last! January 2, 2009
Divine Justice tied all the loose ends of The Camel Club - a fun series to read. Baldacci is a master weaver of story telling, and this last sequel to The Camel Club series kept me turning pages knowing that I was hooked to the very end. I must say that Divine Justice is, by far, the best one of the series, but I do hope that Baldacci gets on with other stories and puts this series to rest.
Oliver Stone is a great character. I wonder who will play him in the movie version? I can suggest Anthony Hopkins...
