" Very interesting book on how much power the president of the United States has and what he can get away with. Some violence and violent sex. "

" The author's use of profanity in this book is so over the top I stopped reading the book - first time I've done that in probably decades. He's turned what should be an appealing plot into trash. "

" excellent beginning and set up. By the half way point all the protagonists appear to be in jeopardy in some way or another, but the 2nd half couldn't quite sustain the weight of expectations. good fun, recommended for easy beach reading. "

" I read this because some of my fellow thriller readers recommended this author and it wasn't bad, but not the best I have ever read.In my heart of hearts I love a quintessential English murder mystery best. "

" I like legal thrillers. Cliched language, thin and unrealistic characters, dumb dialogue, but a well-constructed plot and a couple of half-way decent villains - one was almost three-dimensional. "

" Only three stars because it's formulaic. Nonetheless it's an action-packed pageturner with a satisfying end. Baldacci is both brutal and romantic. "

" David Baldacci writes what I would classify as beach literature -- really fun to read, but no depth whatsoever.Most of his novels are political thrillers.Baldacci is not a favorite writer of mine, but if you're in the mood for fun, easy and lightweight, this is your guy.
