Reviews
"The combination of Patterson's lightning pace and Clinton's tantalizing inside knowledge of how terrorists operate is what make this timely novel so vivid, engrossing--and authentically frightening." -- Carl Hiassen, bestelling author of Razor Girl ,, "The dream team delivers big time . . . Clinton's insider secrets and Patterson's storytelling genius make this the political thriller of the decade."-- Lee Child, author of the Jack Reacher series, " The President Is Missing is heart-pounding, gripping, terrifying. As I read, ferociously turning the pages, I kept asking myself, 'Could this really happen?' Bill Clinton's insight into the pressures of being president and life in the White House coupled with James Patterson's chops as an action writer have combined to give us a genuinely masterful thriller. My knuckles are still white!" -- Louise Penny, #1 bestselling author of Glass Houses, " The President Is Missing is a big, splashy juggernaut of a novel, combining thrills with a truly authentic look at the inner happenings in Washington. I read it in one gulp. You will too." -- Harlan Coben, #1 bestselling author of Don't Let Go, "Bill Clinton and James Patterson seamlessly craft a heady thriller revealing the razor-thin edge between policy and ambition, politics and patriotism. They provide a front-row seat to the inner workings of our political system, a plot that is frighteningly plausible, and a cast of complex characters--both men and women--who all have their own stake to claim. The result: a fast-paced summer read you'll see on planes, trains, and every beach across the country and around the world." -- Walter Mosley, bestselling author of the Easy Rawlins series, "The pages of The President Is Missing are filled with the classic tropes of a big commercial thriller . . . but the authors resist pure escapism . . . The pleasure of this book is in imagining the wild tales Clinton might disclose about his own years as President, if only he could." -- Time, "This book moves like Air Force One. Big and fast. Clinton and Patterson are a dream combo. Two great storytellers, one inside and one outside, both at the top of the game. They've put together an undeniably gripping ride through the hidden passageways of power and politics. This book teaches as much as it entertains." -- Michael Connelly, #1 bestselling author of the Ballard and Bosch series, "Marry the political savvy of Bill Clinton with the craftsmanship of James Patterson and you get a fabulously entertaining thriller that is meticulous in its portrayal of Washington politics, gripping in its pacing, and harrowing in its depiction of the perils of cyberwarfare. This dark tale is, at bottom, a warning and a prophecy about the mortal threats to our democracy posed by terrorists abroad, homegrown extremism, and the technological miracles that have rendered us both powerful and defenseless at once." -- Ron Chernow, #1 bestselling and Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Grant, "It's a go-to read. It maximizes its potency and fulfills its mission. There's a twist or two of which Frederick Forsyth might be proud. So, if you want to make the most of your late-capitalist leisure-time, hit the couch, crack a Bud, punch the book open, focus your squint, and enjoy." -- The New Yorker, "Addictive. . . The President Is Missing towers above most political thrillers . . . Must read." -- Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, "Ambitious and wildly readable... Clinton and Patterson's fictional commander in chief brims with humanity, character and stoicism." -- New York Times Book Review, " The President Is Missing feels like the result of a strong collaboration . . . It's driven by star power and persuasive-sounding presidential candor . . . This book's a big one." -- New York Times, "Could I put The President Is Missing down? Of course not . . . The climax is very exciting." -- Bloomberg, "The combination of Patterson's lightning pace and Clinton's tantalizing inside knowledge of how terrorists operate is what make this timely novel so vivid, engrossing--and authentically frightening." -- Carl Hiaasen, bestelling author of Razor Girl, "Sure to entice millions of readers . . . the novel is fascinating . . . President Duncan for a second term!" -- USA Today, "A high-octan e collaboration . . . the addictivequalities are undeniable. " -- Daily Telegraph (London), "From the pens of two American icons comes a political thriller that rocks. The President Is Missing entertains, educates, and inspires us all to put our country above our politics. Bill Clinton delivers the art of government and James Patterson delivers the art of writing. The reader gets a helluva story." -- Nelson DeMille, #1 bestselling author of The Cuban Affair, *"Clinton and Patterson are a dynamic duo weaving a suspenseful and gripping technothriller that will leave readers wondering, ' Could this really happen?' Highly recommended for thriller and suspense fans." -- Library Journal, starred review, *"A page-turning thriller. The authors keep the suspense high . . . Fans of the TV series 24 and the movie Air Force One will be riveted."-- Publishers Weekly, starred review, "A first-rate collaboration from a couple of real pros! Engrossing from page one." -- David Baldacci, #1 bestselling author of The Fallen, " The President Is Missing ticks every box for top-notch thriller writing: A relentlessly fast plot, utterly unexpected reversals and twists, a compelling--and a thoroughly human--hero, and a searing and honest examination of issues that strike close to our hearts as Americans in this day and age. Bravo, James Patterson and Bill Clinton!" -- Jeffrey Deaver, bestselling author of The Bone Collector and The Cutting Edge, "Compelling from page one. A fantastic read!" -- Mary Higgins Clark, #1 bestselling author of I've Got My Eyes on You, "A bullet train of a thriller, power-fueled by equal parts adrenaline and expertise. Timely, furiously paced, and crackling with authenticity, it's The Day of the Jackal for the 21st century." -- A. J. Finn, #1 bestselling author of The Woman in the Window, "Harrowing . . . Mr. Patterson withholds details until the moment of maximum dramatic effect . . . beach reading of a high order." -- The Wall Street Journal, "The novel's accelerated pace of action is one of the novel's strongest assets, along with a roster of intriguing characters . . . a clever, brave and moral leader that any free nation would be lucky to have at the helm." -- Columbus Dispatch, "Truth hides on every page in this fiction--scary, remarkable truth that can only come from the ultimate insider. The President Is Missing is more than a book, it's a skeleton key that lets you inside the head of a U.S. president. What a surprising treat." -- Brad Meltzer, #1 bestselling author of The Escape Artist

    "Contemporary Thriller"

    I love mysteries, I love that the language was relatively clean, I love how the positions of the authors were voiced! It was fast-paced, yet each scene was clearly described. I would love for this to be required reading in the schools.

    Compelling story but very slow build up

    A very interesting concept that could happen in reality but it took too long for me to get hooked. A book should grab you in the first 10 pgs. This one did not get exciting until almost to the 100th page.

  • A Wake Up Call Book, Well Written

    Pleasantly surprised that the book was engaging and the plot was entirely realistic. Book was totally set in today’s cyber and political realitity. A bit preachy in parts, I believe that was written by President Clinton, but since I agreed with the sermon it was okay with me. I don’t believe the book will be received as well by readers who embrace our current administrations views but I don’t think this book was written for them. Enjoyed book enough to attend one of the book tour events when Mr. Patterson and President Clinton came through my town.

  • Good book.

    I really enjoyed it as this is a scenario that could happen from the top down. Absolute power absolutely corrupts.
