About this listen
Random House presents the audiobook edition of The First Lady by James Patterson, read by Deborah McBride.
A President's affair to remember soon becomes a nightmare he wishes he could forget in James Patterson's gripping new stand-alone thriller.
As he steps out of his hotel in Atlanta with the love of his life, the last thing President Tucker expects is to be greeted by the flashing cameras of the media. Or for his affair to be revealed to the world.
The President must act to stop the scandal from spiralling out of control, just weeks before the vote for a second term. But not before he figures out how to keep the First Lady on his side.
Grace Tucker, however, has other plans.
Betrayed and deeply hurt, she heads for a safe haven outside the capital. But when her security detail loses all trace of her, all hell breaks loose.
The First Lady is missing. Did she run away? Or is she in more danger than they could have imagined...

Wonderful
The story had plot twists and required me to listen longer than planned. Thoroughly enjoyed the book and will recommend to my friends.

Surprising Good Listen
It annoys me that James Patterson has his name emblazoned in huge letters on each of his book covers when he often gets other authors to write his books.
This is a Patterson and DuBois collaboration. To my shame, I’d never heard of DuBois, but he is a successful seasoned author and even won the US version of The Chase Quiz TV programme.
I really enjoyed this audiobook. Firstly, the narrator was superb, and that always makes an essential difference.
Secondly, this was a ripping good story, easy to read but complex enough to keep me gripped.
Well formed characters..... lots of them too, but the plot zipped along and was easy to follow despite the large cast!
This is ideal film material. Well worth a read, and I would certainly listen to more Patterson/DuBois novels. Well done chaps!!

Book ok . But narration not good.
I normally love James Patterson, but I found myself getting bored. Usually the narrator keeps your interest and you look forward at all times to the next chapter. Unfortunately, this time the narrator ruined for me, and I very disappointingly gave up on the book.

Great Start, Disappointing, Rushed ending.
After a barnstorming beginning I was very disappointed with the ending which felt rushed and incomplete.
Not at all like the other James' books I've read.

James Patterson’s back!
I enjoyed this book very much. It is noticeably better than some of JP’s recent offerings when he has ‘written’ with other people

A compulsive listen.
A very entertaining listen from James Patterson. Written by only himself for a change. As usual, it’s fast and complex with clearly defined characters.
