The President is Missing: A Novel
by James Patterson and Bill Clinton
This post is the one-hundred and fifty-third entry for this meme suggested by Sheila@ One Persons Journey Through A World of Books. [Entries 22-25 in the series were posted at the Dr. Bill Tells Ancestor Stories]
So. I wasn’t going to get this one. Then I read a promo article in the AARP Magazine about the process they went through in collaborating and actually writing. I was hooked. Love to read about the inner workings of the White House. Not disappointed. Excellent thriller, page-turner. Hated to ever lay it down. Finished it last night, wayyyyy ahead of what I planned to. ;-)
Book Description from Amazon:
"President Duncan for a second term!" --USA Today
"This book's a big one." --New York Times
"Towers above most political thrillers." --Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
"The plotting is immaculate . . . the writing is taut." --Sunday Times (London)
"Ambitious and wildly readable." --New York Times Book Review
The President Is Missing confronts a threat so huge that it jeopardizes not just Pennsylvania Avenue and Wall Street, but all of America. Uncertainty and fear grip the nation. There are whispers of cyberterror and espionage and a traitor in the Cabinet. Even the President himself becomes a suspect, and then he disappears from public view . . .
Set over the course of three days, The President Is Missing sheds a stunning light upon the inner workings and vulnerabilities of our nation. Filled with information that only a former Commander-in-Chief could know, this is the most authentic, terrifying novel to come along in many years.
Happy Reading!
Dr. Bill ;-)
