Memory Man Audio Book Summary:
Amos Decker’s was on an uptick. He was one of the biggest and most athletic in his hometown of Burlington which leads him to the chance of a lifetime to go pro as a football player. But his life changed forever when during his first game he received a devastating injury from a violent head on collision that took him out of the game permanently. This accident also left him with a side effect that doctors cannot explain: he can never forget anything.
Two decades later, Decker built a career as a police detective using his “gifts” but in one fell swoop his life came spiraling down once again. One night he returns home only to find his wife, daughter and brother-in-law is murdered. With no witness and suspect, Decker finds himself at a loss with the haunting image of his dead family plaguing his every waking day. He resigns from the police force and loses his home. Now he is a private investigator taking the most meager jobs just to have something to eat for the day.
His life will once again be thrown into turmoil when a year later after the tragic death of his family, a man comes forward confessing to the murders. At the same time another tragedy hits Burlington and Decker is called back into the force to help with case. Now he must once again face the memories that he has been trying so desperately to forget in order to get to the truth. Is he ready to pay the ultimate price?

Reactions:
“Memory Man by David Baldacci is an exciting, fast-paced thriller which fans of Baldacci are other series will enjoy. There is enough suspense in the book which will keep you going all the way to the end. In Amos Decker, Baldacci has created a fascinating character while Mary Lancaster is as wonderful. The plot is wonderfully conceived, and the ending will leave you delightfully satisfied.” – The Greatreads

“This book actually gives you a lot to think about; it is more than just a mystery…you may walk away wondering what YOUR life would be like if you could never forget the minutest detail of your life and all that passes by you. You may finish this book, but as odd as this may sound, this book won’t be finished with you.” – Dianne E. Socci-Tetro

“I loved this book. The premise struck me as so interesting! I put down what I was reading and started this yesterday. I could not put this book down. The character was an unusual hero, physically and other wise, which made the story so much more interesting.” – N. Gargano

“I found the story “intriguing” on the one hand, and “plodding” on the other as it seemed to lack the vitality of Mr. Baldacci’s past works almost as if it had been “ghost written”, (no I’m not accusing, just stating an opinion), by someone who just did not quite grasp David Baldacci’s writing style. ” – Terrill D. Carpenter

“This is your typical Balducci novel; good story with numerous twists and turns. This was not one of my favorites. There were too many unrealistic situations and subplots that developed and were not believable.” – Marty Korn
