Since there were so many characters in this novel, I cannot recall any of them, especially since none of the characters had any backstory.

A big problem I had with this book is that I was supposed to believe the president of the United States would have the time to drop everything to focus on the investigation of one man and his capture.

Another issue I had with this book was the relationship between the president and his wife. I could look over the fact that she was the head of the FBI married to the president of the United States. During their meal however, which was supposed to be a husband and wife ordeal, was more of a business arrangement. There was no talk about personal issues between the two, good or bad. There wasn't any banter back and forth as loving people do, it was all formal.

Now onto the plot, there was no reasoning or explanation as to why the antagonist was assassinating individuals other than the fact that he was a liberal and they were conservatives.

I wanted to like this novel but alas it was a disappointment. The main plot has been done before and the inciting incident hacked my gizzard

I will say first, this book seemed to be written at a middle school reading level and was riddled with cliches.
