The Escape by David Baldacci (2014)

This is the third John Puller story and we already know about his general dad in a facility with Alzheimer's and his bright brother Robert in prison, supposedly for treason though he helped our his brother on one of the other cases.

There is a power outage in the Fort Leavenworth prison, the back-up fails, cell doors open instead of locking, and Robert escapes, but there is a dead body in his place. And off we go....

John Puller comes to check out the situation, but actually ends up being assigned to the case, as he knows his brother the best and may be most likely to find him. He gets assigned a side-kick - Veronica Knox - who is not military, but part of the intelligence network. With many twists and turns, so one is never sure who is on which side and with Robert Puller's brilliant mind, they get the bad guys, who have been detrimental to the stability in the world.

Pure Baldacci. I had one CD left to listen to before I left for a trip. I took it with me hoping the rental car would have a CD player. It did. I didn't have t wait 5 days to hear the ending.
