With the help of his old friend Nico, a female report, and another presidential aide who is currently running for a senate seat the Presidential aide Wes Holloway is able to piece together the correct sequence of events and how the big three FBI, Secret Service, and CIA tried to blackmail the government.
This book was very enjoyable and for the most part kept me reading to the very end. There were a few places where it drag but for the most part I really enjoyed it. The look into the emotions that a president and his wife go thru once leaving the White House and the position of such power was eye opening and something I really haven't ever read about in presidential biographies. But this book makes you aware of some of those emotions. It also made me more aware of why the FBI, Secret Service, and CIA do not necessarily get along or work together in the book it explains that it is a way of maintaining a system of checks and balances over their kind of information. This is one of those books you can read over and over again.
