Publisher Description

A cryptic murder pulls a former soldier turned financial analyst deep into the corruption and menace that prowl beneath the opulent world of finance, in #1 New York Times bestselling author David Baldacci’s new thriller.

Every day without fail, Travis Devine puts on a cheap suit, grabs his faux-leather briefcase, and boards the 6:20 commuter train to Manhattan, where he works as an entry-level analyst at the city’s most prestigious investment firm. In the mornings, he gazes out the train window at the lavish homes of the uberwealthy, dreaming about joining their ranks. In the evenings, he listens to the fiscal news on his phone, already preparing for the next grueling day in the cutthroat realm of finance. Then one morning Devine’s tedious routine is shattered by an anonymous email: She is dead. 

Sara Ewes, Devine’s coworker and former girlfriend, has been found hanging in a storage room of his office building—presumably a suicide, at least for now—prompting the NYPD to come calling on him. If that wasn’t enough, before the day is out, Devine receives another ominous visit, a confrontation that threatens to dredge up grim secrets from his past in the army unless he participates in a clandestine investigation into his firm. This treacherous role will take him from the impossibly glittering lives he once saw only through a train window, to the darkest corners of the country’s economic halls of power . . . where something rotten lurks. And apart from this high-stakes conspiracy, there’s a killer out there with their own agenda, and Devine is the bull’s-eye.

    " The 6:20 Man, an audiobook written by David Baldacci and narrated by Zachary Webber, Mela Lee, and Christine Lakin would be a fine addition to a collection of thrillers. All three narrators bring a unique level of talent and skill to the production that truly makes it stand out from other audiobooks in its genre. The story kept me on edge throughout and at nearly 12 hours long it was the perfect length for a recent trip. What I found most impressive about this audiobook was how well all three narrators complemented each other's performances. Most notably Christine Lakin skillfully captures both the suspenseful moments and lighter moments throughout this thrilling tale with perfect nuance and timing. The 6:20 Man is truly an audiobook experience that transports you right into the middle of this suspenseful journey as if you were part of it. If you are looking for an immersive mystery that packs punch after punch with adventure, then this is definitely worth a listen! "
