Wow, another great novel from Mr. Baldacci! Brings back the crew from The Camel Club, and throws in for good measure a smart and stunning con artist named Annabelle. Very suspenseful read blends murder, forgery, national security, and, yes, a good dose of humor besides ... even if you haven't read The Camel Club {Why the heck not?? It's terrific, too!!} you'll still enjoy The Collectors.

I really have enjoyed this series, The Camel Club is just a wonderful group of real characters. This is by far the best of them that I've read. If you haven't read any of them, it's well worth your time. But be sure and start with the first one so the characters will be developed. Absolutely great.
