Decker's determined to uncover the truth, no matter the personal cost. But solving a case this cold may be impossible, especially when it becomes clear that someone doesn't want the old case reopened. Someone who is willing to kill to keep the truth buried, and hide a decades-old secret that may have devastating repercussions . . .

"I love the Memory Man Series! David Baldacci does a great job of developing the relationships between the recurring characters and involving them in the new crisis/storyline.
In Redemption, Decker's intelligent and methodical personality is slowing developing into an almost sensitive one. The supporting cast continue to appreciate his eccentricities and help him grow.
The story starts in a sentimental place, going to Decker's home town. It quickly turns into a mystery involving the first murder case Decker and Lancaster worked. The intrigue builds and weaves, involving unexpected characters, in unexpected ways. I never imagined the source of all the trouble. A great audiobook."
