About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

He's America's most brilliant president ever. He's also a psychopath.

US president Keegan Barrett swept into office on his success as director of the CIA. Six months into his first term, he devises a clandestine power grab with a deadly motive: Revenge.

President Barrett personally orders Special Agents Liam Grey and Noa Himel to execute his plan, but their loyalties are divided. As CIA agents they've sworn to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all threats, both foreign and domestic.

When the threat comes directly from the Oval Office, that's where the blowback begins.

Surprisingly good

I usually enjoy books by Patterson even though they are fairly same-ish and somewhat predictable.

This one is a bit of a departure in that I felt and thoroughly enjoyed it. Despite the second chapter starting with the dreaded words “2 months earlier”.

Still not convinced that was needed though it all comes together nicely regardless.

Catches you from chapter 1

This was meant to be my holiday listen but finished in 3 days. Great story line. Characters believable but plot kept you turning the page for what was going to happen next. One of the best JP books I have read in a while.
