Have you ever wondered what would happen if a psychopath were elected to the White House? James Patterson?s new thriller, ?Blowback,? asks us to imagine just that.

The newly elected president at the center of the story is Keegan Barrett. He operates the government like it was his personal fiefdom. He is maddeningly inconsistent, loudly making threats and making confidential messages of goodwill at the same time, rocketing from one position or crisis to another. Early in the novel, President Barrett outlines a clandestine policy shift to strike America?s enemies with shocking and devastating force. To implement this scheme, President Barrett enlists the help of two special agents, Noa Himel and Liam Grey.

This thriller poses the terrifying question: What if we had a president who was like Trump but competent? It will certainly prick liberals? anxieties.
