Hour Game

In David Baldacci's heart-pounding thriller, 'Hour Game,' ex-Secret Service agents Sean King and Michelle Maxwell, now partners, are drawn into a seemingly straightforward investigation of a robbery at the opulent estate of the wealthy Battle family. However, this domestic crime quickly unravels, revealing sinister connections to a series of gruesome murders plaguing the prosperous town of Wrightsburg. As the body count rises – including an unidentified young woman, two high school students, and a successful lawyer – it becomes chillingly clear that a serial killer is at large. This meticulous murderer replicates the methods of notorious killers from the past, leaving a stopped watch at each crime scene, its time signifying the victim's place on a chilling hit list. With the FBI baffled and the fractured Battle family increasingly implicated, King and Maxwell find themselves in a desperate race against time, navigating an intricate puzzle brimming with tantalizing clues but devoid of concrete evidence, as the killer's deadly 'hour game' threatens to consume more lives.
