Following a successful but exhausting book tour, Joe Biden is looking forward to returning home. However, before he does, he s got one last stop to make: Chicago, where the Obama Foundation is holding its first annual global economics forum. Barack Obama has invited Joe to meet a wealthy left-leaning philanthropist, whose deep pockets Joe will need if he decides to run for president. Joe isn t even sure if wants to run but he s not going to pass up a rare chance to reconnect with his one-time governing mate. Joe and Obama barely have time to catch up before another mystery lands in their laps: Obama s prized Blackberry is stolen. When the suspect turns up comatose from a gunshot wound, local police are content with writing it off as just another gangland shooting. But Joe and Obama smell a rat. In a race to find the shooter, Joe and Obama butt heads with their former compadre, Mayor Rahm Emanuel; follow a trail of clues through Chicago s South Side; go undercover inside a Prohibition-era speakeasy; and scale the Tribune Tower in a Die Hard-worthy final set-piece. Robert Frost said the woods are dreary, dark, and deep. So are the waters of Lake Michigan and if Joe and Obama aren t careful, that s where they could wind up spending their retirement. Series Overview: Joe Biden and Barack Obama refuse to go quietly into retirement in this escapist mystery series featuring the former POTUS and VPOTUS as amateur sleuths. Evocative of noir thrillers and bro-mantic buddy cop movies, this series is for anyone longing for the 44th presidency, as well as readers who are curious to know what True Detective would look like with Murtaugh and Riggs.
