Book Overview

The runaway bestseller that takes us down the rabbit hole of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. John F. Jennedy, Jr., was Lark. Amy Carter was Dynamo. Chelsea Clinton was Energy . Meet Shadow . Shadow is the Secret Service code name for First Daughter Nora Hartson. And when White House lawyer Michael Garrick begins dating the irresistible Nora, he's instantly spellbound, just like everyone else in her world. Then, late one night, the two witness something they were never meant to see. Now, in a world where everyone watches your every move, Michael is suddenly ensnared in someone's secret agenda. Trusting no one, not even Nora, he finds himself fighting for his innocence--and ultimately, his life. This description may be from another edition of this product.

A definite 5-star thriller!

By Thriftbooks.com User, January 24, 2002

The First Counsel is one of the best books I have read in a long time. This is the first Meltzer book I've read, and as is usually the case, the first book by an author is usually my favorite since you don't have any clue as to how the author writes or where he is going with the story.This book truly was a page turner and very easy to read. Instead of telling us, Meltzer uses a lot of dialogue to keep the story moving quickly...

Political intrigue that's fun!

By Thriftbooks.com User, January 21, 2001

This story involving the totally out of control sex-drugs-and-rock-and-roll daughter of a sitting president is completely over the top, and yet it works in a big way. Michael Garrick, a young White House lawyer, has begun dating Nora Hartson, the president's daughter, as the novel begins. Because of a wild and seemingly spontaneous action on Nora's part as they are out one night, Michael and Nora witness something they should...

A SUSPENSE LACED READING

By Thriftbooks.com User, January 17, 2001

Audiobook aficionados may well remember the sterling readings by Scott Brick of "The Lion's Game" and "The Ice Limit." He's every bit as effective with his rendering of this mesmerizing tale of D.C. intrigue. Michael Garrick, a promising young White House lawyer, is more than attracted to the President's daughter, Nora. While the path to true love has never run smooth, this path for Michael soon proves to be land mined with...

This is the ultimate 'Can't Put it Down' book!

By Thriftbooks.com User, January 12, 2001

Meltzer has penned a master thriller with "The First Counsel." This is better than anything Grisham has ever written. Meltzer throws the reader right in with a bang of a first chapter...and things only get more intense after that. The characters are extremely intriguing, and I felt as if I had my own White House badge...as Meltzer took me inside the White House for a detailed portrayal of how things really work. We get...

Meltzer's Best Yet

By Thriftbooks.com User, January 12, 2001

I have read Mr. Meltzer's previous book, Dead Even, and was disappointed. That is why, with some trepidation, I decided to try his newest novel. I could not be more pleased. Meltzer has really grown as an author. He no longer goes for the cheap laugh or stunt and has created and intelligent,intricate, thriller that also takes you into the "backstage" of the White House.This is truly an enjoyable book and I highly recommend...
