About this listen
In Simple Genius, David Baldacci reintroduces the main characters from best sellers Split Second and Hour Game.
Sean King and Michelle Maxwell are both haunted by their last case. Realizing that Michelle is teetering on the brink of self-destruction from long-buried demons, Sean arranges therapy for his reluctant partner. But instead of focusing on her recovery, Michelle unearths disturbing secrets in the hospital....
Sean accepts a much-needed job. A physicist, Monk Turing, has died in mysterious circumstances near Babbage Town - a secretive establishment populated by an eccentric group of scientists and cryptographers, funded by an anonymous but powerful group. Meanwhile the dead man's young daughter, piano-playing prodigy Viggie, has secrets of her own. But what is the significance of the phrase 'codes and blood'?
Directly across the York River from Babbage Town lies the sinister CIA training ground Camp Peary, where Monk Turing's body was found. With both the FBI and CIA breathing down Sean's neck, can he discover the truth? And will he be in time to save Michelle from herself?
Simple Genius is followed by First Family, The Sixth Man and King and Maxwell.

Code breakers
I enjoyed the book and the way it combines the history of codes and the ways they work

Mostly good, technical error in audio though
Story good, though static in audio detracted a little in middle and the music was off putting at times

Great story but is ruined by weird sound effects.
I have purchased an audiobook to basically have someone read the story to me, without the ridiculous "value add" sound effects that are distracting and frankly patronising.
Please stop disrespecting the performer and authors work by trying to make it something it is not. David Baldacci, Scott Brink (and I) don't need it.
As for the story, this is not the strongest in the King & Maxwell series but still a solid story, well told.
