The publishing event of 2018: Bill Clinton and James Patterson's The President Is Missing is a superlative thriller . . . one that can really happen, and one that must not be missed.
The President Is Missing confronts a threat so huge that it jeopardizes not just Pennsylvania Avenue and Wall Street, but all of America. Uncertainty and fear grip the nation. There are whispers of cyberterror and espionage and a traitor in the Cabinet. Even the President himself becomes a suspect, and then he disappears from public view . . .
Set over the course of three days, The President Is Missing sheds a stunning light upon the inner workings and vulnerabilities of our nation. Filled with information that only a former Commander-in-Chief could know, this is the most authentic, terrifying novel to come along in many years. And a timely, historic story that will be read--and talked about--for years to come.

Bill Clinton was elected President of the United States in 1992, and he served until 2001. After leaving the White House, he established the Clinton Foundation, which helps improve global health, increase opportunity for girls and women, reduce childhood obesity and preventable diseases, create economic opportunity and growth, and address the effects of climate change. He is the author of a number of nonfiction works, including My Life, which was a #1 international bestseller. This is his first novel.
James Patterson received the Literarian Award for Outstanding Service to the American Literary Community from the National Book Foundation. He holds the Guinness World Record for the most #1 New York Times bestsellers, and his books have sold more than 375 million copies worldwide. A tireless champion of the power of books and reading, Patterson created a new children's book imprint, JIMMY Patterson, whose mission is simple: "We want every kid who finishes a JIMMY Book to say, 'PLEASE GIVE ME ANOTHER BOOK.'" He has donated more than one million books to students and soldiers and funds over four hundred Teacher Education Scholarships at twenty-four colleges and universities. He has also donated millions of dollars to independent bookstores and school libraries. Patterson invests proceeds from the sales of JIMMY Patterson Books in pro-reading initiatives.

《失踪的总统》告诉你9个人生道理

前前前任总统眼里的白宫和美国政治
这篇书评可能有关键情节透露
刚拿到这本书的时候,我才仔细看了下作者名,比尔·克林顿??虾米?是哪个大名鼎鼎的前前前任总统吗?一看还真是,让我对这本书充满了好奇,一个前~总统笔下的白宫和美国政治经济,究竟是怎么样?是更具说服力?还是更贴近现实? 提到这位传奇总统,总难免会想到他风流的桃色... (展开)
离开白宫17年,克林顿终于又回来了,而且不靠老婆!
这篇书评可能有关键情节透露
对这本书感兴趣,因为作者之一是比尔·克林顿。 话说奥巴马签了Netflix要拍电影,克林顿也毫不逊色,执笔写书,退休生活誓比高下。 这本书由他同悬疑小说家詹姆斯·帕特森合作。 没法明确分辨谁写了哪段。 但我猜,帕特森更擅长写作技巧,诸如结构设计、情节推进。 而主人公“... (展开)
最具真实性的总统类小说
这篇书评可能有关键情节透露
只有总统才知道的秘密,而目前只有克林顿总统才敢写的书。这书虽然是小说,小说的特性是:如有雷同,纯属巧合,而本书由总统写的总统小说如有雷同,更让人愿意去相信这是真实故事化名的。 这本书里有很多暗藏的小彩蛋,例如1988年麦克尔·杜卡基斯搞砸了第一个关于死刑的辩论问... (展开)
总统再来做一次的正确方式

克林顿的“第三任期”?
这篇书评可能有关键情节透露
《失踪的总统》是一部“传统的”美国小说,但同时又是极具时代气息的作品。 克林顿作为一位具有鲜明“美国特点”的前总统,在小说中传达的观念必然是符合美国传统“政治正确”的。所以,在这部小说中,俄罗斯、中国等国被视为对手,伊朗、朝鲜等国是敌对国家,欧盟、以色列则是... (展开)> 更多书评 81篇

The book is as incoherent as it is desperate, filled with Clinton's historical-political rambling jammed with classic James Patterson blockbuster thrills, funny things in this book: president's wife is dead, close female colleague betrayed him, and the Speaker is after him yet he came out unscathed...symbolism or fantasy? Still a great summer book! (展开)

刚读开头的听证会,还,挺抓眼球的。最后总统的演讲有些拖沓,就当是Clinton在过瘾吧。中间节奏把握地不错。总之这个总统是个战争英雄+好丈夫+好爸爸+好总统,bigger than Clinton himself

看推荐说是总统写的小说会有总统的独特视角,感觉很好奇,不知道是什么样的视角。另外听说他把第一夫人给写死了。。。 终于看完了,Emma, 真是,要不是看在克林顿写的,真是读不下去了。。。 不过最后结局写得还行

作为一本惊悚小说,这本书还真是很娱乐。朗读者们非常棒。第一人称的写法也让人有身临其境感。

一般般啦。克林顿大概喜欢强势的女人,书里最大的敌人是聪明、凶狠的女刺客和处心积虑想要干掉他的女副总统。
