This is good Baldacci. The story is too extreme to be believable, BUT it is an entertaining read AND, as is consistent with this author, there is an underlying message that is truly disturbing. Without trying to encapsulate the plot the notion of "Perception Management" as a critical component of the potential disasters that can be created by the intentional misconstruction of what is true is worrisome. "Perception Management" refers to a specific level of consultants that through a variety of media techniques influences the thinking of the public to believe that which is being promoted is actually true. Such distortion can be seriously problematic as is portrayed in this action thriller of a novel
