Total Control: A Pulse-Pounding Thriller from the Number One Bestseller

A RISING STAR.

Jason Archer is a young executive at a world-leading technology conglomerate. Determined to give his wife and daughter the best of everything, he enters into a deadly game of cat and mouse.

A GRIEVING WIDOW.

When a plane plummets into the Virginia countryside, Sidney Archer is devastated by the loss of her husband. But then she learns the job interview Jason was flying to never existed, and everything changes. Suddenly there is no one she can trust.

A RACE FOR THE TRUTH.

A suspicious air crash investigation team, a tenacious veteran FBI agent and the threads of a sinister plot all beg the question: what really happened to Jason Archer?

Perfect for fans of the Travis Devine and Atlee Pine series, Total Control is a breathtaking thrill ride of non-stop action and suspense from international bestselling author David Baldacci.

David Baldacci has been writing since childhood, when his mother gave him a lined notebook in which to write down his stories. (Much later, when David thanked her for being the spark that ignited his writing career, she revealed that she'd given him the notebook to keep him quiet, "because every mom needs a break now and then.")

David published his first novel, ABSOLUTE POWER, in 1996. The feature film adaptation followed, with Clint Eastwood as its director and star. In total, David has published 50 novels for adults; all have been national and international bestsellers and several have been adapted for film and television. His novels have been translated into over 45 languages and sold in more than 80 countries, with 150 million copies sold worldwide. David has also published seven novels for younger readers.

David is also the cofounder, along with his wife, of the Wish You Well Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting literacy programs across the United States.
