good story, not so good reader

I liked the story. Guessed the traitor early. doubted it often, though. For me, Quaid was hard to listen to. voice too coarse, graveley. it was tense and the fake search for the let word at the end was good.

It was a wonderful listen

Enjoy this book very much, well written and up to date with all happening in the world today

Pretty good book

Narrator’s voice (as the President) was very grating- hard to listen to. Liked that the story kept moving.

Mind Blowing Read

This was not my first James Patterson' book, I fell in Love with his novels since I was deployed in Bosnia. This book kept me hungry for more. It was like I was a character in the book. A well, written and enjoyable experience this book gives you. You never know what's going to happen next. I will be listening to this again.

Suspenseful

Scary scenario for our nation! Too political towards end. A touch of partisanship...perhaps too preachy.
