Four presidents of the United States have been assassinated--in 1865, 1881, 1901, and 1963--each murder seemingly unrelated. But what if those presidents were all killed for the shocking same reason: a clause contained in the United States Constitution? This is the question faced by former Justice Department operative Cotton Malone. Available in a tall Premium Edition.

Many thrillers feature rich men who consider themselves above the law and the good guys who stop them. That basic formula plays out in this political thriller, which finds a group of multimillionaires trying to assassinate the U.S. President. This is Berry's seventh series installment featuring Cotton Malone; Scott Brick's narration keeps the story tense. (c) Copyright 2012.
