In The Camel Club, best-selling author David Baldacci paints a frighteningly vivid portrait of a world that could be our own very soon, and the few people who have a chance to stop the chaos. It's an event that may well be the catalyst for the long-threatened Armageddon between two different worlds, and all that stands in the way of this apocalypse are five unexpected heroes. Soon the Club must join forces with veteran Secret Service agent Alex Ford, who becomes an unwilling participant in one of the most chilling spectacles to ever take place on American soil. Yet never in Stone's wildest nightmares could he imagine the conspiracy the Camel Club is about to uncover.Īfter witnessing a shocking murder, the Club is slammed headfirst into a plot that threatens the very security of the nation, full of stunning twists, high-stakes intrigue, and global gamesmanship rocketing to the Oval Office and beyond. Day and night, Stone and his friends study wild conspiracy theories, current events, and the machinations of government, hoping to discover some truth that will hold America's leaders accountable to its citizens. He has no known past and has taken the name 'Oliver Stone'. Baldaccis instant New York Times bestselling thriller is the story of a ragtag group of conspiracy theorists who gather to find the hidden truth behind. Their simple goal is to find the 'truth' behind their country's actions.

Kate Adams brings The Camel Club and Alex Ford (plus Adelphia and Jackie Simpson) together with various pieces of the puzzle.It exists at the fringes of Washington, D.C., has no power, and consists solely of four eccentric and downtrodden members whom society has forgotten. The 4 long-time members of the Camel Club (Oliver, Reuben, Milton, and Caleb) witness a murder. Reuben gets the common man's take on things. Caleb has research skills plus can keep his ear to the ground for government sources. Now, seeing the dynamics between Oliver, Reuben, Milton, and Caleb in the first book, I kind of understand more what they were trying to do-Oliver seems to be a person who can put pieces from various sources together to see the whole. That may be because I jumped into it in later books and there are several characters who form The Camel Club plus ancillary characters that are quasi-members, so it was harder to keep them all straight when I didn't start from the beginning. That said, The Camel Club isn't my favorite of his series. I decided to go back and read Baldacci books that I hadn't read yet because I usually enjoy his books. I've read later books in this series prior to reading this one, which is the first in the series.
