About this ebook

Evan Waller is a monster. He has built a fortune from his willingness to buy and sell anything . . . and anyone. In search of new opportunities, Waller has just begun a new business venture: one that could lead to millions of deaths all over the globe.

On Waller's trail is Shaw, the mysterious operative from The Whole Truth, who must prevent Waller from closing his latest deal. Shaw's one chance to bring him down will come in the most unlikely of places: a serene, bucolic village in Provence.

But Waller's depravity and ruthlessness go deeper than Shaw knows. And now, there is someone else pursuing Waller in Provence – Reggie Campion, an agent for a secret vigilante group headquartered in a musty old English estate – and she has an agenda of her own.

Hunting the same man and unaware of each other's mission, Shaw and Reggie will be caught in a deadly duel of nerve and wits.

Deliver Us From Evil is Hitchcockian in its intimate build-up of suspense and filled with the remarkable characters, breathtaking plot turns, and blockbuster finale that are David Baldacci's hallmarks.

Ratings and reviews

I read, tortured by Victoria fry, and although I was riveted to my seat with both books, the two stories didn't match, so, I was quite confused, but its horrific what these children went through, but turned out to still have their own lives. My heart went out to them all.

My heart hurt so bad for these children. They were my age when this happened to them and I couldn't imaging going through this or having my children have to endure this. I highly recommend this story & "Tortured" by Victoria Spry (her fostor sister Sarah in this story) and she had more horrific details in her story. Both were equally tragic. A must read for all.

A brave telling of sadistic child abuse and breaks my heart what they went through. The courage it must have took to write this and face the past i cannot imagine. Very articulate and detailed account of the abuse. Very sad and hard to read. Brings awareness to the signs all of us should be watching for to prevent such a terrible crime.
