Keeps you guessing

The story kept me wanting more as it moved between the perspectives of each character. I never quite had it solved until almost the end. The only drawback for me was the narrator voicing Brea. She’s a solid reader, but her voice is lifeless & thin. I also found I had to adjust the speed to 1.2 every time her parts came up. All in all I enjoyed it very much and that did not spoil it for me. I hope there are more books in this series to come. I’ve liked them all.

The twist and turns to find the truth

This was an overall great read. I loved how it didn’t end until the truth was revealed and justice was served. The last speech of the president was almost like the blueprint for another president to steal to save the economy and lower the national debt as it was greatly detailed but it still went with the plot as we’ve been waiting to hear what the great bargain was going to entail. Great read, plenty of suspense.

I hope this new administration pays attention to proposal on chapter 139

For the first time I read a teller book and it seems so real that I finished it in 4 days

The Thrill

The twist and plots... It keeps you guessing. Do not want to stop listening! I want more...

The fast-paced, reality based storyline.

I really enjoyed the layered telling of the story. Each character was well-thought out.

Narrators female voice hard to tolerate

Maybe it was me, but I couldn't handle the voice, I will read the book. James Patterson fan & Bill Clinton is a bonus!

I loved the storyline. Well researched and written thriller.

The voices were ok but didn’t quite fit the characters. After a few chapters, I would like to recognize which character is speaking before being told.

Amazing Political Thriller!

You will absolutely regret not reading/listening to this book! I couldn’t stop playing the audiobook and after just a day and half it’s done!!! I hope they make a movie!

Average read.

This book was just ok. The Brea character narrating the trial portion was super annoying. Almost didn’t stick it out. Average plot.

Better than some of Pattersons' other recently published.

there were intriguing plot twists. The last chapter would be an extraordinary read. The passages written with his co author in the last chapters were quite thoughtfully written.
