About this listen

From the New York Times bestselling author of The President Is Missing, America has elected its most brilliant president ever, but he’s also a psychopath—and about to start a world war with our most dangerous enemy.

US President Keegan Barrett has swept into office on his success as Director of the CIA. Six months into his first term, he devises a clandestine power grab with deadly consequences.

Barrett personally orders CIA agents Liam Grey and Noa Himel to execute his plan, but their loyalties are divided. The CIA serves at the pleasure of the president, yet they’ve sworn to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.

When the threat comes directly from the Oval Office, that’s where the blowback begins.

“Pure Patterson… Blowback asks us to imagine what would happen if a narcissistic psychopath were elected to the White House [and] to experience the terror of the world hanging in the balance at a moment when only a handful of determined patriots can save us.” –Ron Charles, Washington Post

One of his best thrillers.

Both narrators are excellent, especially with different accents. Haven't ran into the insane President storyline before, but, this is an excelent take on it.

The ending had me on the edge of my seat!

The ending was outstanding but the story took a while to get started. If you can hold out until the end, you will love it!

Crazy President?!? It could (or has) happen...

interesting concept. I hope there are more checks and balances in place to prevent this from happening. Good story.
