As with other Patterson books the chapters are pretty short, making the book fast paced and seem quick to read. I certainly zipped through the chapters quickly. However, a few of the book club found it hard to get into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The book begins with a Special Operations Mission being carried out under the orders of President Matthew Keating. The outcome of the mission will have repercussions in the future\u2026\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like President Clinton\u2019s daughter did, President Keating\u2019s daughter attends Sidwell Friends School. Which leads you to wonder how much of their experiences at the White House are shared. Can\u2019t say more because of spoilers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Part One introduces the characters, Part Two begins with Keating being succeeded by his Vice President. There is no love lost between the new President Pamela Barnes, and her predecessor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For his part, ex-President Keating is keeping a low profile. \u201cRetiring\u201d to New Hampshire, while his wife returns to her career. And while he still retains security protection, his daughter comes of age (16 years old Mel) and does not. Hence she is able to be kidnapped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What follows is gripping, with lots of twists and turns, including some shocking moments. Well, it is a thriller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">I enjoyed it \u2013 Recommended<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Available from&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/uk.bookshop.org\/p\/books\/the-president-s-daughter-the-1-sunday-times-bestseller-president-bill-clinton\/6676520?aid=3668&amp;ean=9781529157215\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">City Adventurers Solve The Murder<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>and from&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3EeEn8X\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Amazon<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/Presidents-Daughter-bestseller-Patterson-stand-alone\/dp\/1529157218?_encoding=UTF8&amp;qid=1676733544&amp;sr=8-1&amp;linkCode=li2&amp;tag=invittoevent-21&amp;linkId=00607e413bc30501af77f4b6414fc4be&amp;language=en_GB&amp;ref_=as_li_ss_il\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ws-eu.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;ASIN=1529157218&amp;Format=_SL160_&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;MarketPlace=GB&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;WS=1&amp;tag=invittoevent-21&amp;language=en_GB\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I suggested The Presidents Daughter by President Bill Clinton&nbsp;and James Patterson to my book group as our next read.
