Publisher's summary

New York Times best-selling author Stuart Woods returns with another absorbing thriller.

President Will Lee is having a rough week. His vice president just died during surgery. Confirmation hearings for the new vice president are under way, but the squeaky-clean governor whom Will has nominated may have a few previously unnoticed skeletons in his closet. And Teddy Fay, the rogue CIA agent last seen in Shoot Him If He Runs, is plotting his revenge on CIA director Kate Rule Lee - the president's wife.

Plus there are some loose nukes in Pakistan that might just trigger World War III if Will's diplomatic efforts fall short. It's up to President Lee - with some help from Holly Barker, Lance Cabot, and a few other Stuart Woods series regulars - to save the world, and the upcoming election.

Mounting disappointment - Rate Zero

Worst of the author's efforts with no ending. He just gave up. All of this compounded by a terrible narration. Audible should provide a credit for this total dissappointment.

Narrartor stinks, story weak.

The narrator does not fit for a Stuart Woods Will Leeill land & Teddy Fay. The story seems to stretch out when it needs to end. It could have been saved with a more believable Narrator. Very hard to stay with the book.
