The President Is Missing – Bill Clinton and James Patterson<\/p><\/div>\n

We kick off 2019 with the unlikely collaboration between one of the most prolific “authors” of the 21st century and the 42nd President of the United States.\u00a0 The President Is Missing<\/em> tells that tale of a President under threat of impeachment who must put politics aside to focus on saving the country from a devastating cyber-attack that would destroy infrastructure and kill millions.<\/p>\n

It has been about 7 years since I read anything by James Patterson, but the novelty of this one, along with a cheap price on Kindle, made it a no-brainer.\u00a0 It was a quick read and was mostly enjoyable, but there were some plot holes that, given where the story went, really should have been addressed.\u00a0 The plan of the terrorists was to take out the Internet in the United States, destroying machines and electronic records along the way.\u00a0 Just two things about this: 1) it would be impossible to limit this type of an attack within geographic borders and 2) such an attack would destroy the world’s economy, not just the US.\u00a0 Aside from that, it was a good airplane read.<\/p>\n
