These two action-packed suspense novels feature mission-tested military men uncovering deadly conspiracies in small rural towns. As the body counts mount, these likable lone rangers each get help from an attractive local police officer. -- Shauna Griffin

Similar Authors From NoveList
NoveList provides detailed suggestions for other authors you might want to read if you enjoyed this book. Suggestions are based on recommendations from librarians and other contributors.
The novels of Stuart Woods and David Baldacci use themes of politics, corporate secrets, and espionage to advance their breakneck plots rife with suspense and power-hungry characters. -- Tara Bannon Williamson
Screenwriter Stephen Cannell's adventure, suspense, and thriller novels may be told in more blunt prose than David Baldacci's, but there are often similar themes -- conspiracy and corruption -- and the pacing is every bit as page-turning. -- Kim Burton
Though David Baldacci pens thrillers while Jeffrey Archer writes suspense, both authors are known for their fast-paced, intricately twisted plots filled with political skullduggery. They're also alike in their use of good versus evil, black-and-white characters, and engaging heroes. -- Ellen Guerci
Just like David Baldacci, Brad Meltzer sets his page-turning thrillers against diverse high-power backgrounds -- financial, political, law enforcement, legal. He also offers action-filled plots and sympathetic protagonists battling powerful and deadly opponents. -- Krista Biggs
Readers who enjoy the fast-paced, atmospheric suspense stories of David Baldacci might also enjoy the novels of Richard Doetsch, who writes suspense novels that are intricately plotted, fast-paced, and plot-driven. -- Nanci Milone Hill
Stephen W. Frey and David Baldacci pen edge-of-your-seat suspense novels featuring ruthless businessmen, trained assassins, and FBI agents. Both writers maintain fast-paced, intricate plots punctuated by intrigue, double-crosses, and violence. -- Mike Nilsson
David Baldacci and Kyle Mills both craft suspenseful conspiracy-based thrillers in which their characters (and readers along with them) are unsure whom to trust, and where it will all lead. -- Kim Burton
Like David Baldacci, James Grippando writes high-energy suspense stories featuring corruption and conspiracies, although Grippando's are more violent. Likeable characters put in difficult situations fill his complex, intricately plotted novels. -- Kim Burton
It's hard to believe that anyone who has read David Baldacci has overlooked John Grisham, but for such a reader Grisham's tense, fast-paced, suspense-building stories will appeal -- especially if less graphically violent content is also welcome. -- Kim Burton
These authors' works have the genres "spy fiction" and "humorous stories"; the subjects "conspiracies," "assassins," and "international intrigue"; and characters that are "likeable characters."
These authors' works have the subjects "conspiracies," "assassins," and "kidnapping."
