When Obama’s Blackberry goes missing, Denton becomes a suspect and then is later found, on the South side of Chicago, shot and barely alive. The police write it off as a gang shooting, but Biden and Obama think else wise. Denton had told Biden how Rising Stars had helped him turn his life around for the good in a serious way, and Biden believed him. Biden and Obama combine forces, to find the shooter, recover the missing Blackberry and determine who is and who isn’t on the level in the corrupt city of Chicago. Keep in mind Chicago is in the middle of celebrating St. Patrick’s Day; a major event for all of Chicago. It may seem a bit off to imagine Biden and Obama as detective, but that is part of the fun of the read. Not all goes according to plan as the story moves along. There are some laughable scenes and situations. Once again Steve, Obama’s bodyguard, is along to protect Obama and have some unusual experiences of his own. I’m hoping there may be a third book in the future. If not, the two books have been a blast to read. (  ) ChazziFrazz | Mar 7, 2020 | intrepid detectives Biden and Obama slide into action to pursue the shooter of a young colleague. A lot of Chicago lore and locations, notably Valois Restaurant in Hyde Park, enliven the script and create more entertainment than the first book. Political asides, sarcasm, and humor create HOPE for a 3rd volume featuring the demise of the current administration. ( ) m.belljackson | Feb 10, 2020 | geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

HTML:In the sequel to the New York Times best-selling novel Hope Never Dies, Obama and Biden reprise their roles as BFFs-turned-detectives as they chase Obama's stolen cell phone through the streets of Chicago—and right into a vast conspiracy. Following a long but successful book tour, Joe Biden has one more stop before he can return home: Chicago. His old pal Barack Obama has invited him to meet a wealthy benefactor whose endorsement could turn the tide for Joe if he decides to run for president. The two friends barely have time to catch up before another mystery lands in their laps: Obama’s prized Blackberry is stolen. When their number-one suspect winds up full of lead on the South Side, the police are content to write it off as just another gangland shooting. But Joe and Obama smell a rat . . . Set against the backdrop of a raucous city on St. Patrick’s Day, Joe and Obama race to find the shooter, only to uncover a vast conspiracy that goes deeper than the waters of Lake Michigan—which is exactly where they’ll spend the rest of their retirement if they’re not careful.
