The President's Daughter by Bill Clinton and James Patterson

Absolutely loved this thoroughly entertaining, powerful and exciting thriller! Every bit as good as The President is Missing. I think Clinton's insights into what it's like to be a former President as opposed to a standing President add something fascinating to this. I can recommend the audiobook, which has a number of narrators and really adds to the pace and immediacy of the plot, which crosses borders and packs quite a punch. A couple of blows had me in tears, they were that powerful. A full blog review will be posted for the kindle netgalley review.

"I am the justice."
Mel, bright heavily bespectacled and feisty 19 years old college student, is also ex President Matt Keating's only daughter. After Matt lost the election to his Vice President, his wife pursued her archaeological career whilst he retired to a more rural location with continued, lifelong personal protection, a protection which did not apply to Mel after she turned sixteen. And so she was an easy terrorist kidnap victim, her sole hiking companion murdered, and a ransom demanded, one which the present administration had no intention of paying.

Being somewhat predictable in no way lessens the hold-your-breath tension as Matt tries all he knows to get his daughter back, from diplomacy to physical attack. Characters are skillfully crafted, small details bringing them vividly to life and it is this attention to detail which, again, brings a feeling of reality to the whole book. From first sentence to the last, The President's Daughter demands the reader's attention and holds it throughout. Read skillfully by numerous narrators, each takes the short, snappy chapters dominated by different perspectives taking one of those characters as their own, and this wonderful array of voices not only helps delineate the individual actions and protagonists within the story but additionally keeps the reader focused on the recording, a fresh voice also refreshing the listener. And each narrator is excellent.

I was very fortunate in being freely gifted with a complimentary copy of The President's Daughter, at my request, from Penguin pulications, via Netgalley. Thank you so much. I thoroughly enjoyed the combination of James Patterson's masterful thriller story telling skills combined with the expertise and detailed knowledge of ex President Bill Clinton. They make a fine team. And this book would make a great film.
Highly recommended to all who look for riveting reading

This book was fast and furious, i just couldn't put it down. Very well written and confident, the plot was totally believable despite the twists. First time reading anything by both authors and was very impressed, they captured my attention well. Thank you #NetGalley for the audiobook to review.

Wow! Just wow! This audiobook blew my socks off! It was full of tension and suspense throughout! The partnering of James Patterson and Bill Clinton works perfectly to create this thrilling book.

It piqued my interest immediately and I knew I had to see what this book entailed. I love how Clintons knowledge from presidency has been worked into the story, it gives it an edge, a believable power and I think it plays into the atmosphere that it creates from this.

I enjoyed the narration, and the fact it had a cast of multiple narrators. I think that helped with the engagement of the book itself and for making it clear which character perspective each chapter was playing out.

The plot was fab. Half way through there is a HUGE tragic, awful incident, a real shocker and from that point I think I ended up playing the rest of the book in one sitting. I was hooked!

The character development throughout the book was well written, particularly Mel and Matt. You could really feel the emotions in both of them and in particular Mel.

Overall, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this book. I now need to read the first book written together by both Clinton and Patterson. What a riveting read!

** I received an advanced copy of this audiobook to listen to and review. Thank you NetGalley, the authors and publisher for allowing me this opportunity. **

I received this audiobook from the publishers via Netgalley for a review. Although not a Patterson fan loved this book and characters especially the President's daughter. The multiple narrator's are a good addition.

Excellent listen- when the ex-president of the USA daughters is kidnapped the book unfolds the subsequent search. With plenty of twists and turns along the way as to be expected in this genre- this was an excellent listen. The current occupants of the white house were in no way likeable! Narration was great and with number of main characters it was easy follow. brilliant sequel to the presidents missing. Hopefully another collaboration between Bill Clinton and James Patterson will happen soon

Now got this on kindle version and audio. My review is under the kindle version. Audio definitely a bonus.
