Hello and welcome to Episode #224 with host Dave Temple. It's your #1 Thriller Fiction, Film & TV Podcast where Dave interviews the giants of thriller fiction. And today, we’re happy to have #1 New York Times bestselling author, the legendary David Baldacci.

David is here to chat about his latest book, "Strangers in Time!" This isn’t another legal thriller; instead, Baldacci has taken a delightful detour into historical fiction, and trust me, it's a ride you want to buckle up for.

We’ll unpack how this book explores the resilience of the human spirit during tough times and the power of connection—because let's face it, going it alone is so last season.

With over 150 million copies of his books flying off the shelves, Baldacci shares his journey, revealing the stories behind the stories and how he keeps that creative engine running.

So grab your favorite drink, settle in, and let’s unravel the layers of this incredible tale together!
