About this item
Donde nacen los conflictos belicos que rigen los destinos del mundo? Que intereses mueven las altas esferas? En The Whole Truth, David Baldacci no solo explora la verdad de la politica internacional, sino tambien la de la naturaleza humana. ""Recordad a Konstantin"" es el grito de batalla que recorre Estados Unidos. Un video colgado en Internet certifica que este joven ruso ha sido torturado y ejecutado por el gobierno de su pais. El temor ante el regreso de la guerra fria es tan palpable que los Estados de todo el mundo se preparan para lo peor. Pero y si todo se tratara de un engano? Nicholas Creel, director de Ares Corporation, una gran multinacional de armamento, se cree con suficiente poder como para manipular la realidad en su beneficio.
About the Author
David Baldacci has been writing since childhood, when his mother gave him a lined notebook in which to write down his stories. (Much later, when David thanked her for being the spark that ignited his writing career, she revealed that she'd given him the notebook to keep him quiet, "because every mom needs a break now and then.") David published his first novel, ABSOLUTE POWER, in 1996. A feature film followed, with Clint Eastwood as its director and star. In total, David has published 41 novels for adults; all have been national and international bestsellers and several have been adapted for film and television. His novels have been translated into over 45 languages and sold in more than 80 countries, with 150 million copies sold worldwide. David has also published seven novels for younger readers. David received his Bachelor's degree from Virginia Commonwealth University and his law degree from the University of Virginia School of Law, after which he practiced law in Washington, D.C. David is also the cofounder, along with his wife, of the Wish You Well Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting literacy efforts across the United States. David and his family live in Virginia.
