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.”) He published his first novel, Absolute Power, in 1996; it was subsequently adapted for film, with Clint Eastwood as its director and star. In total, David has published 43 novels for adults; all have been national and international bestsellers, and several have been adapted for film and television. His books are published in over 45 languages and in more than 80 countries, with 150 million copies sold worldwide. David has also published seven novels for younger readers. David and his wife, Michelle, are the co-founders of the Wish You Well Foundation®, which supports family and adult literacy programs in the United States. In 2008 the Foundation partnered with Feeding America to launch Feeding Body & Mind, a program to address the connection between literacy, poverty and hunger. Through Feeding Body & Mind, more than 1 million new and used books have been collected and distributed through food banks to families in need. A lifelong Virginian, David is a graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University and the University of Virginia School of Law.

Hell's Corner pdf by David Baldacci

John Carr, aka Oliver Stone, once the most skilled assassin his country ever had, stands in Lafayette Park in front of the White House, perhaps for the last time. The president has personally requested him to serve his country again on a high-risk, covert mission. Though he's fought for decades to leave his past career behind, Stone has no choice but to say yes. Stone's mission changes drastically before it even begins. It's the night of a state dinner honoring the British prime minister. As he watches the PM's motorcade leave the White House, a bomb detonates in the park, an apparent terrorist attack. In the chaotic aftermath, Stone takes on a new, more urgent assignment: find those responsible. British MI-6 agent Mary Chapman becomes Stone's partner in the search. But their opponents are elusive, capable, and increasingly lethal, and Stone enlists the help of the only people he knows he can trust: the Camel Club. In the shadowy worlds of politics and intelligence, nothing is really what it seems. This may be Oliver Stone and the Camel Club's last stand.
