David Baldacci Long Road to Mercy
About LONG ROAD TO MERCY: Eeny, meeny, miny, moe. Catch a tiger by its toe.\n \nIt\u2019s seared into Atlee Pine\u2019s memory: the kidnapper\u2019s chilling rhyme as he chose between six-year-old Atlee and her twin sister, Mercy. Mercy was taken. Atlee was spared. She never saw Mercy again. Three decades after that terrifying night, Atlee Pine works for the FBI. She\u2019s the lone agent assigned to the Shattered Rock, Arizona resident agency, which is responsible for protecting the Grand Canyon. When one of the Grand Canyon\u2019s mules is found stabbed to death and mutilated at the bottom of the canyon\u2014and its rider missing\u2014 Pine is called in to investigate. It soon seems clear the lost tourist had something more clandestine than sightseeing in mind, but just as Pine begins to put together clues pointing to a terrifying plot, she\u2019s abruptly called off the case. If she disobeys direct orders by continuing to search for the missing man, it will mean the end of her career. But unless Pine keeps working the case and discovers the truth, it could spell the very end of democracy in America as we know it.
