With just three days to prevent the assassination of the President, Army lawyer Sean Drummond races the clock in the high-stakes countdown of his career. Army lawyer Sean Drummond*new posting is to the Office of Special Projects, a CIA cell that handles the most dangerous threats. When the White House Chief of Staff is found brutally murdered, there*s a note beside him promising more victims--including the President. Sean leaps into action, teaming up with a beautiful colleague to try to stop the assassin. As the killer stalks the campaign trail, apparently driven by a$500 million bounty on the President*s head, all arrows point to a member of the White House security detail who*s gone missing. Only after a dramatic hostage rescue that culminates in an intense shootout does Sean realize law enforcement*s horrible miscalculation--and what must be done to set things right.©2005 Brian Haig; (P)2005 Books on Tape, Inc.

I have not read this author before and was sort of unsure as to buy or not, but after reading all the reviews I decided to. GREAT STORY . If you like to read Stephen Coonts and Nelson Demille, then this book is for you. I usually like to start at the beginning of a series but with this book you do not have to and you do not feel that you are missing anything. I would recommend this book.

EXCELLENT

This is a very well written and expertly narrated book. The plot is thoughtful and written with an insider's eye for detail. The DC bureaucratic infighting is told very well. The principal character is tightly drawn, and even though to an extent a first-person narration destroys some of the "will he survive" tension, it was still a very enjoyable book. If you like plot twists and you appreciate an inventive approach, you'll like this book.

Terrific Plot

Haig's book had me ignoring my cell phone and sitting in my driveway just to inch a little closer to the 'end game.' I will definitely be getting another Brian Haig book again very soon.

I don't know if there's a book that narrator Scott Brick could ever do an injustice to. He's truly masterful at his craft. If you liked this book, check out Robert Ludlum's "The Company" (also narrated by Brick) if it's still available.

Great book. Kept me glued to my seat. I too got a little tired of Sean Drummond's incessant wise guy sarcasm. It's a bit over the top at times. I was a bit disappointed with the plot solution, as I thought the author backed himself into it by eliminating (most of) the rest of the possibilities. As for the reviewer who's offended by the treatment of the south? Um...Pay attention: No one except his arrogant and judgmental protagonist is spared. Everyone in the book is mostly unhinged with one character defect or another. The seven deadly sins are well represented, with pride, envy and greed showing up in spades. Add plain old sloppy thinking, bureaucratic backstabbing and the results of bad parenting to the mix, and it seems that the author has most of the federal government payroll neatly compartmentalized in one overly simplified psychological stereotype or another. Except, of course, for our hero Sean.

But a very good ride with some really good plot pyrotechnics, compelling and clever police-work writing and tight plot construction. If I could make one adjustment it would be to add more one or two more actually likable characters to the mix.

Would you try another book from Brian Haig and/or Scott Brick?

The only thing that saved this performance was Scott Brick's reading. The author seems to have written a story of silly one dimensional idiots who eventually morph into two dimensional goofs. If the Secret Service, FBI, CIA and politicians are this stupid there is little hope for the country.

Has The President's Assassin turned you off from other books in this genre?

Love the genre, but I am embarrassed when the characters are this petty and silly.

Did Scott Brick do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

Scott Brick is a welcome voice and an excellent narrator but there is only so much he can be expected to do with this flimsy tale

Do you think The President's Assassin needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

Noooooooooooo

Goofy story, thank goodness for Scott Brick
