Memoria total (Amos Decker 1)

Memory Man is the novel that kicks off David Baldacci's masterful New York Times best-selling crime series starring Amos Decker.

Amos Decker was the only person in his hometown of Burlington to become a professional football player, but his career ended before it began. A violent clash of heads with an opponent threw him off the field forever and left him with a strange side effect: he can never forget anything.

Two decades later, his life suffered another dramatic change. Decker, now a police detective, returned home one night and entered a nightmare: his wife, daughter, and brother-in-law had been murdered.

Unable to forget every detail of that terrible night, Decker left the police force and survived by taking occasional jobs as a private investigator.

More than a year later, a man surrenders to the police and confesses to the murders. At the same time, a horrifying event that shakes the city of Burlington prompts Decker to rejoin the police force, and offers him the opportunity to discover what really happened to his family.

Reviews:
«A stunning first novel in a new suspense series.»
Publishers Weekly

«It will hook readers from the first page. Baldacci is a brilliant storyteller. Memory Man works because Amos Decker is an amazing character. His journey from hitting rock bottom to finding ultimate redemption is very rewarding.»
Associated Press

«A great novel, bold and impossible to forget. Decker is one of the most unusual detectives ever devised by a novelist. A masterpiece and a full-fledged bestseller due to its fast pace, the originality of the protagonist, and its irresistible plot.»
The Washington Post

«A suspense story that extends to the thrilling confrontation between these characters, as complex as they are fascinating.»
Library Journal

«Baldacci introduces an unusual protagonist, with peculiar qualities and a tragic past. Decker turns out to be a curious and original anti-hero who is not as crazy as he seems. Readers will want to revisit Decker's stories again and again.»
Kirkus Reviews

Crime Spree Magazine
