![]() Kate Adams brings The Camel Club and Alex Ford (plus Adelphia and Jackie Simpson) together with various pieces of the puzzle. 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. When not writing, Baldacci is a passionate philanthropist that co-founded the Wish You Well Foundation with his wife. 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. ![]()
