I generally don't have high hopes for these, but was pleasantly surprised to discover this one to be a fast moving reasonably pleasant read. Only complaint was that there were so many characters and overlapping/converging plotlines that I had trouble keeping them straight. But it all worked out in the end. This author's on my read-again list. ( ) Books are like strangers that we meet at social events. We do our best to size them up, decide if they're worth the investment of our time, but sometimes we get it wrong and are just glad when it's over. Books have the slight advantage of not getting their feelings hurt if we put them down, throw them away, or skim through them to get past the dull bits. I finished this book mainly because I was hoping it would get better. It was pretty creative, in its own way. However, even though I did my best to ignore the consistent use of foul language and sexual references, I was never drawn to any of the characters. That made it hard to remain interested in the story. I also didn't care for the way the timeline flipped around. I was skipping entire pages because I already wanted the book to be over and the added complexity of trying to keep track of past, present, who and where--well, it did nothing but make it more annoying. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Pertenece a las seriesJim McGill (1)
As we've just seen, it's only a matter of time--and not that long a time--before the United States elects its first female president. Which will make her husband--what? Well, if he's the ex-cop who solved the murder of the president's first husband and brought the killers to justice...and if he's not the kind of guy to stand on formality...and if he doesn't want to be the head of the FBI...and if he takes out a license and becomes the first private eye to live in the White House... That would make him The President's Henchman. Jim McGill's first case is to find out who is stalking a member of the White House press corps, before that stalker turns the tables on McGill and maybe even threatens the president herself. He also has to be a shadow adviser to a young Air Force investigator who is looking into a he-said-she-said charge of adultery leveled against a female colonel working at the Pentagon, a case with the potential to derail the new president's administration before it has a chance to begin.
