About the book
No Man's Land is a thriller novel written by American author David Baldacci. This is the fourth installment in the John Puller book series. The novel addresses a mystery hinted at in the previous novels: the disappearance of Puller's mother. In doing so, Puller is forced to revisit his childhood memories. Baldacci has said "in this book I was able to go back and allow [Puller] to see his childhood through his own eyes. I hoped to humanize him and deepen his character."

“Excellent! I love this series, but this is the best episode yet. The mystery of what happened to Puller's mother is finally resolved. Focused on Fort Monroe... where I also lived at 8 years old ;)”
“Was great to learn what really happened to John Puller's mother on the night she disappeared and give the Puller family closure. I really enjoyed this story and couldn't put it down!”
