The President's Daughter: A Thriller
All Presidents have nightmares. This one is about to come true.
A rocket ride of a thriller-the #1 New York Times bestselling blockbuster by President Bill Clinton and James Patterson, "the dream team" (Lee Child).
Every detail is accurate-
because one of the authors is President Bill Clinton.
The drama and action never stop-
because the other author is James Patterson.
Matthew Keating, a one-time Navy SEAL-and a past president-has always defended his family as staunchly as he has his country. Now those defenses are under attack.
A madman abducts Keating's teenage daughter, Melanie-turning every parent's deepest fear into a matter of national security. As the world watches in real time, Keating embarks on a one-man special-ops mission that tests his strengths: as a leader, a warrior, and a father.
The authors' first collaboration, The President Is Missing, a #1 New York Times bestseller and the #1 bestselling novel of 2018, was praised as "ambitious and wildly readable" (New York Times Book Review) and "a fabulously entertaining thriller" (Pulitzer Prize–winning author Ron Chernow).

This is a story about a 19 year old girl in some very tuff experiences. Remembering all the training she received while in the White House and also the words of wisdom from her Dad she is able to survive the ordeal she faced Only Bill Clinton and James Patterson can do a story like this. Hopefully they will do another.

This is one of the best I have read. I simply could not put it down and would have finished it the day I received it but the time was short and my eyes weary!!! I was intrigued by the obvious political facts which were well thought out and were probably part of Bill Clinton's participation in writing this book. The intrigue and twists,and turns of the story kept me involved as a good book should do. Excellent reading....

The President's Daughter is the second novel written by Bill Clinton and co-authored with James Patterson. I enjoyed their first collaboration, The President Is Missing, and have been looking forward to this book. And, Clinton and Patterson did not disappoint; I love this book! In The President's Daughter, we meet Matthew Keating, a former Navy Seal and a one term president of the United States. After he has served his one term, his daughter is abducted by a terrorist, and the former president has to knock the rust off his Seal's training to plan and carryout a special op to try to rescue her. The President's Daughter is a true thriller; its pages are filled with thrill. From the outset, this reading experience felt like riding a thoroughbred who broke well from the gate and went wire to wire at a record setting pace. The President's Daughter did not slow from page one. It has been a long time since I have become so lost in a book that I had to work to control the need to continue to read it. But at 608 pages, this meaty text seems to require some pacing. And, the short chapters did not help that compulsion, as "just one more" becomes difficult to deny. As with the first novel, this book is well written with interesting, well-drawn characters and a rich and complex plot. The ending is bittersweet, both in the substance of the book and in my realization that I am going to have to wait a long time for Clinton and Patterson to write another 600 pages. The President's Daughter is highly recommended.

This book is exactly what you would expect from acclaimed author, James Patterson, and a former president of the US, Bill Clinton. The book is short, thankfully, on technology and long on character development. The plot gallops along like a loose stallion, never halting for even a breath. I had to leave it a couple of times because my eyes were getting tired. It took me two days to read. I never, not one time was distracted. Excellent book. My only complaint is the sprinkling of bad language, particularly G**d***, which is insulting to the many people who think this is blasphemy.
