I really should have DNFed this. I hoped it would get better as I got into it but it never did. The characters were forgettable and the plot mostly pointless. The only decent part was the climax and by that point I was just glad it was over. Almost rated it 1 star and maybe should have.

3.8 stars. The story itself was solid. What is the risk of a president that goes rogue, suffers from malignant narcissistic disorder, and surrounds himself with ‘yes men’? What happens when the only guard rails are a few good people willing to protect the constitution? The storytelling had too many plot lines that didn’t really push the story forward. Could’ve been a 4 star. Definitely didn’t feel like a typical Patterson novel.

This was a fun read if you like CIA stuff. There isn’t really one hero, but there certainly is one bad guy. The book was a nice change of pace for me.
