Many Bestsellers Available To Patrons At Lowe Public Library

By DEBORAH STARKEY

No Man’s Land is David Baldacci’s fourth book in his very successful John Puller series. Two parallel stories keep you interested through the first half, merging by the middle of the book.
Thirty years ago when John Puller and his older brother Robert were young boys, their beautiful mother mysteriously disappeared one evening from the Ft. Monroe army post. The army investigated but not a single clue was ever found about the disappearance. Thirty years later, a friend and neighbor at the time is dying of cancer, wrote a letter to the Army’s Criminal Investigation Division accusing the father, John Puller Sr., a retired 3-star army general of murdering his wife. Aging Puller Sr. resides in a rest home suffering from deteriorating mental and physical health.
Miles away a convicted killer, Paul Rogers, is released from a federal prison having served ten years for murder. Within hours after his release, he kills two men and this sets Rogers on a cross-country killing spree.
Meanwhile, Officer John Puller, teaming with his older brother is on a mission to learn what happened to his mother and to clear his father’s name. Puller also gets help from fellow CID sidekick and sometimes girlfriend Veronica Knox. This is no doubt the best of Baldacci.
