Our view
“Last Man Standing” is a strong Baldacci thriller that pairs high-stakes action with a study of guilt and suspicion. After an ambush wipes out his FBI Hostage Rescue Team unit, the lone survivor sets out to learn how it happened and who was behind it. Some readers are hooked from the opening attack and find that the hero’s self-reproach and growing distrust lift it above routine action. It runs to over six hundred pages.
