David Baldacci's 6 favorite books with an element of mystery

One of David Baldacci's six favorite books with an element of mystery, as shared at The Week magazine:

All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr

This is a tale of two lives, really, those of a German boy and a blind French girl whose paths converge during World War II. The prose is so lush you could love Doerr's Pulitzer Prize–winning 2014 novel for its language alone. But the story is also remarkable — heartfelt and heartbreaking.

All the Light We Cannot See is among Jason Flemyng's six best books, Sandra Howard's six best books, Caitlin Kleinschmidt's twelve moving novels of the Second World War and Maureen Corrigan's 12 favorite books of 2014.
