Will Robie is a hitman, an assassin for the U.S. government. Robie never questions his orders and he always nails his targets, until one night when a mission doesn't seem quite right, he refuses to kill and becomes a target himself. While trying to escape he runs into a young teenager running away from the people who murdered her parents. Robie has always been a loner, probably the hazard of being an assassin, but he teams up with Julie and becomes attached to this young girl and vows to protect the runaway. Baldacci has been called "the premiere writer of conspiracy in high places" and "The Innocent" does not disappoint. There are many twists and turns, and sometimes it is hard to tell the good guys from the bad guys in this story. Will Robie is a good guy that we hope to see more of from Baldacci in the future.
