The First Gentleman, a thriller by former President Bill Clinton and the master of thrillers, James Patterson.
The First Gentleman is Clinton, and Patterson's third collaboration with the first two being The President Is Missing and The President's Daughter. The books are not a series, so it doesn't matter what order you read them in.
The First Gentleman: Plot
President Madeline Wright is in the middle of a reelection campaign and preparing a plan to save the US economy. But that is not her biggest problem; it's her husband, Cole Wright.
Cole is a former NFL star who played for the New England Patriots and is now the first gentleman. Cole is being charged with a 17 year old murder of a cheerleader, turning his world upsidedown.
Two investigative reporters, Garret Wilson and Brea Cooke, set out to write a book and uncover the truth about this cold case. Is Cole Wright guilty of murder? You will have to read this book to find out.
The story alternates between personal moments and political drama. You will be drawn into a web of secrets, investigations, and power struggles that feel real. Patterson keeps the chapters short and suspenseful, making this hard to put down. I do have the other two books and can't wait to read them.

Thanks for telling me about 'The First Gentleman', Sam. I knew about the first two, but didn't realize there was a third book by Bill Clinton with James Patterson. I will have to look for it.
ReplyDeleteIt never occurred to me that a female president's husband would be called the first gentleman, but it makes sense. This sounds like a great book! I love the plot idea.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea that President Clinton and James Patterson had collaborated on writing novels! I’m definitely intrigued.
ReplyDeleteWell now I’m wondering if my friend who is a huge James Patterson fan knows about this book? I had no idea the former Prez was involved with this book! Sounds very good.
