    About this audiobook

    From the creator of the critically acclaimed, award-winning Cork O'Connor mystery series comes a haunting, atmospheric, conspiracy thriller. When President Clay Dixon's father-in-law -- a former vice president -- is injured in a farming accident, First Lady Kate Dixon returns to Minnesota to be at his side. Assigned to protect her, Secret Service agent Bo Thorsen soon falls under Kate's spell. He also suspects the accident is part of a trap set for Kate by David Moses, an escaped mental patient who once loved her. What Bo and Moses don't realize is that they're caught in a web of deadly intrigue spun by a seemingly insignificant bureaucratic department within the federal government. Racing to find answers before an assassin's bullet can kill Kate, Bo soon learns that when you lie down with the devil, there's hell to pay.

      I have loved other books written by this author, This Tender Land and Ordinary Grace, but this one? It reads like a YA novel. Nothing to care about with any of the characters. Although this book is 10 years old, there is NO way the security for the First Lady of the United States has as lax security as this book suggests. The author’s previous work is the only thing that kept me slugging through this thing.
    • 5/5
      Another great book by a fantastic author. It is obvious that untold periods of research went into the creation of this novel. One has to wonder at what point fiction give’s over to reality. Thank you ……..
    • 4/5
      Good suspense/ Government conspiracy novel. Mostly clean. Not overrun with cussing.
    • 4/5
      Another great one by William Kent Krueger! This one was more jumping around than others by him, but still good!
