Vega Jane (The Finisher; The Keeper) and companions survived the Quag only to become lost in True, where residents are entranced into peaceful complacency. Vega Jane now faces a battle that carries the fate of the whole world. Baldacci's third installment struggles with uneven pacing and unusual dialect that can pull readers out of the story; a strong, endearing heroine helps compensate for these flaws.
