1) Hardcover Book The Whole Truth by Grand Central Publishing. First of all let me tell you that this plot is not new. The movie "Wag the Dog" starring Dustin Hoffman has a fake war too.
The story is well written and fast paced so you´ll have a good time reading it but it also has some blunders.

Spoiler:
If you haven´t read the book don´t read this:

The plot is a little far-fetched because I really don´t think that Russia or China will start a war just for hearing some scuttlebutt and not checking the truth of it. I think that part is utterly false and wrong not to mention that everybody will use the same dealer to buy war-ware.¤

2) Hardcover Book The Whole Truth by Grand Central Publishing. Another reviewer suggested that this book is akin to a James Bond story and, yes, I agree, but it´s such a fast, good read that it´s fun. Set the scene with a multi billionaire on his own luxury yacht, down in the bowels of which is his private submarine in which he may come and go unseen. The central character is named Shaw and is a secret operative for a government agency, fighting crime. When Shaw becomes engaged to marry a brilliant and beautiful woman who works for a Hong Kong based company which employs only exceptionally clever people to act as a think tank for world problems, he tries to leave his very dangerous occupation to lead a normal life with her. His employer refuses to allow him to leave until he has carried out another mission to prevent the possibility of WW3. Multi billionaire, Nicholas Creel, head of the armament company, Ares Corporation, is planning to create suspicion between China and Russia, in order to sell massive amounts of arms and to keep the world in a state of Cold War. Yes, it´s quite a Bond story but one which I found to be a good, exciting read with danger, murder, spectacular fights, beautiful girls and hunky heroes!¤

6) Hardcover Book The Whole Truth by Grand Central Publishing. "Dick, I need a war."
Nicolas Creel is a man on a mission. He heads up the world´s largest defense contractor, The Ares Corporation. Dick Pender is the man Creel retains to "perception manage" his company to even more riches by manipulating international conflicts. But Creel may have an even grander plan in mind.
Shaw, a man with no first name and a truly unique past, has a different agenda. Reluctantly doing the bidding of a secret multi-national intelligence agency, he travels the globe to keep it safe and at peace.
Willing to do anything to get back to the top of her profession, Katie James is a journalist who has just gotten the break of a lifetime: the chance to interview the sole survivor of a massacre that has left every nation stunned.
In this terrifying, global thriller, these characters´ lives will collide head-on as a series of events is set in motion that could change the world as we know it. An utterly spellbinding story that feels all too real, THE WHOLE TRUTH delivers all the twists and turns, emotional drama, unforgettable characters, and can´t-put-it-down pacing that readers expect from David Baldacci-and still goes beyond anything he´s written before.¤
