Then one cool October morning in 1946, he rose early, drove into town, walked into the church, and calmly shot and killed the Reverend Dexter Bell.

It's 1949. When war veteran Aloysius Archer is released from Carderock Prison, he is sent to Poca City on parole with a short list of do's and a much longer list of don'ts: do report regularly to his parole officer, don't go to bars, certainly don't drink alcohol, do get a job - and don't ever associate with loose women. The small town quickly proves more complicated and dangerous than Archer's years serving in the war or his time in jail.

not the best, but i still couldn't put it down
first off, i liked it, this review is mostly negatives but they are individual issues, as a whole it was an enjoyable story. First off this is not the story I thought it was. The title, and tagline suggest it is a search for the missing president, the president is instead the protagonist and narrator. The Big Problem was credible, and political thrillers can be forgiven if they over simplify and exaggerate the threat at times. But the plot felt like a series of red herrings. So that the resolution felt a little flat. The payoff was barely earned, with a deus ex machina to reward the heroes' noble but ultimately fruitless labor. The character of the president feels like the most basic power fantasy, he never makes a real mistake, he has all the answers all the time and has Sherlock level deductuve power. Even his illness, an attempt to give him a flaw, fails to matter at all to the plot. The assassin is a stock lady assassin with her super human killer skills, stoic cynical personality, and sympathetic sob story motives. A bit disappointing and no climactic showdown, perhaps innovative? Or realistic? but felt narratively empty. But it was an interesting glimpse into the mind of a president, especially one so dramatically remembered. The speech at the end is an odd touch, but like other political thrillers the author is permitted to do some moralizing and speculation. And I liked it. The next president should hire Patterson as a speech writer (or maybe Bill) The speculation fails slightly as the book fails to address the real problem with governmental cyber security, that of attracting the top talent. waving it away as inevitable without acknowledging the root causes. I would recommend this book to fans of the genre or the President but with a nod to the weaknesses in the plot

The story was good - the performance was terrible
The only real complaint I have about this book was Dennis Quaid's voice- he should not narrate books. Very distracting and took away from the story.

Wordy
Basically, the book had an interesting and compelling plot. My suggestions would be to have women narrate the women’s dialogue. It becomes almost comical when the actor playing the president breaks into a woman’s voice. Also might suggest that the actors practice reading their parts more before recording. Many parts sounded like someone reading those lines for the very first time.
The story itself was a bit too wordy...so much description before explaining something. That got old.

Disappointing Narration. <br /><br />
The cocept and the "weapon" were fascinating and all too believable. The tone of the book seemed angry. I was very disappointed in Mr. Quaid's narration. I like him as an as actor, but he needs to stick to one character at a time. The other narators were much better to listen to, at least to my ears.

A must read! Clinton & Patterson-awesome team!!
Excellent story line! The high-tech espionage and war games is in keeping with James Patterson style! You could "feel" Mr. Clinton's presence throughout the book, especially in the last chapter. As the eloquent speaker that he is, you can envision him in the presidential role portrayed in this novel. Dennis Quaid does an adequate job as narrator and Bach's narrator has a smooth, silken voice, helping you to envision a stealth ninja woman. The high degree of tension throughout the book is almost unbearable, along with the constant barking of orders, keeping it moving at a fast clip. Would make for an excellent Showtime movie! Do it again guys! Next time use Scott Brick as your narrator!
