Bill Clinton Turns to Thriller writing With The President is Missing

by | Apr 1, 2018 | News

The former US president and best-selling novelist, James Patterson, are charting unknown territory with their collaboration on a thriller, The President is Missing. Slated for a June 2018 publication, the second unusual aspect of the book is the fact that it will be a joint release by rival publishers, Alfred A. Knopf and Little, Brown and Co. Their signatures are visibly present on the copies of every novel.
Billed as a “unique amalgam of intrigue, suspense and behind-the-scenes global drama”, the novel might be the first in the thriller genre written by a former president.
James Patterson, known as one of the most prolific authors in the US, is seen collaborating for the first time with a person more famous than himself.
President Bill Clinton has occupied a prominent place on the list of bestsellers in the US after having sold more than two million copies of his memoir, My Life, in 2004, which was published by Alfred A. Knopf, and then published in Arabic by the Cultural Dialog Company in Beirut, Lebanon.
