Cotton Malone has taken me on some exciting adventures from the secrets of the Alexandria Library, to a lost fortune of Napoleon's and to an undiscovered tomb of terra cotta warriors in China. This time there are no visits to his bookstore in Denmark because the action takes place in America. The plots involves American pirates, the link between the four presidents assassinated while in office and missing pages from the "Congressional Reacord".
There are a lot of people involved in this book. There are a group of pirates, a security agency, a fired agent from the Magellen Billet, Malone and the U.S. President all searching for the missing pages. There were so many people that I kept confusing the character names and had a hard time, for some reason, keeping the quartermaster and the captain's names straight. Other than that, it was an easy read.
There is even a bit of American History thrown in. I enjoyed reading about the attempted assassination of President Andrew Jackskon and how Davy Crockett came to help him. How can you not love that?
