"Sidney Archer is devastated when she hears that the plane carrying her husband to Los Angeles has crashed. But her nightmare begins when she learns he'd traded identities and flown to Seattle instead. Evidence suggests that Jason Archer was selling corporate secrets to a high-tech rival. Soon Sidney herself is caught in a web of intrigue as wealthy men vie for more power and money. Fired from her law firm, pursued by hired killers eager to recover an encrypted computer disk Jason had mailed to himself, Sydney finally trusts only the FBI agent who believes her innocent. No one is immune here from high-tech snooping and violent death. Baldacci writes strictly for action, not wasting time developing characters or setting. Few books have higher heaps of dead millionaires at their conclusion. The scant literary value won't deter those who snatched up his first book, the best-selling Absolute Power (LJ 11/15/95), or keep them from standing in line to see the film version, due in February. Public libraries will need a copy or two to meet demand, especially with a major publicity blitz planned."

"Baldacci burst on the thriller scene with Absolute Power (1995), which stayed on the New York Times best-seller list for more than four months. Total Control is even more suspenseful, and it is also far more interesting in terms of the questions it raises about how much technology controls us. Baldacci's ruthless characters wield the latest in action weaponry, laptops, and cell phones. Everyone still carries guns, but they're fighting over computer disks and trying to outsmart each other with frantically typed e-mail. Except for a sabotaged airliner that hits the ground with enough impact to practically disintegrate, creating a huge crater in rural Virginia and killing a couple of hundred innocent people, and a bunch of vicious murders, all the crime is online, involving the stealing of top-secret financial documents pertaining to high-tech companies with names such as Triton and CyberCom. Baldacci's heroes are also a mix of the old and the new: a bighearted FBI guy and a beautiful, high-powered attorney who really just wants to stay home and take care of the kids. Maybe so, but when her husband disappears, Sidney Archer transforms herself from corporate deal-maker into a gun-toting momma with a sure shot and enough smarts to outmaneuver her very angry, very evil assailants. Good and slick. "

“西德尼·阿徹是傷心,她聽到丈夫架運送到洛杉磯失事了。但她的噩夢開始她學他會交易飛往西雅圖的身份來代替。有證據表明,傑森弓箭手是銷售公司秘密到一個高科技的對手。西德尼自己很快就被困在一個網絡陰謀的有錢男人爭奪更多是權力和金錢。她解僱律師事務所,追求由僱傭殺手渴望恢復一個加密的計算機磁盤已經寄給自己傑森,悉尼終於相信只有FBI探員相信她的無辜的。這裏沒有人免疫暴力與死亡的高科技窺視。寫Baldacci嚴格為行動,而不是浪費時間發展字符或設置。一些書有較高的成堆的死百萬富翁在他們的結論。可惡的文學價值並不會阻止那些舉起他的第一本書,暢銷全國絕對的權力(LJ 11/15/95),或阻止他們在排隊去看那部電影版,由於在二月。公共圖書館需要一份拷貝或兩個來滿足需求,尤其是在一個主要的宣傳計劃。“突擊

“Baldacci驚悚場景出現在與絕對的權力(1995年),在《紐約時報》暢銷書列出了4個多月。更懸疑總量控制,也有趣得多的方面的問題提出了有多少技術控制我們。Baldacci人物的無情的最新行動揮舞武器、筆記本電腦、手機。大家還是攜帶槍支,但他們是在電腦磁盤和試圖戰勝對方瘋狂的輸入和電子郵件。除了客機撞向地面破壞,幾乎有足夠的影響分解,創造一個巨大的坑和殺害一個農村弗吉尼亞花幾百無辜的人,一羣惡性兇殺案,其中所有的犯罪都是在線的,涉及偷竊機密的財務文件中有關高科技公司的名字和CyberCom鶴。Baldacci混合的英雄們的古老而新:一個bighearted聯邦調查局的人,一個美麗的、高性能的律師誰真的只想呆在家裏照顧孩子。也許是吧,但當她丈夫消失、悉尼、改造自己的弓箭手從公司deal-maker成一個gun-toting媽媽有足夠的聰明肯定開槍,一直堅持到她非常生氣,非常邪惡的襲擊者。好,光滑。“
