Synopsis

President Geoffrey Hilliard and his family live in the ever-present glare of the political limelight. The White House isn't an easy place to grow up, so when the President's son Cam, a teenage chess champion, experiences extreme fatigue, moodiness, and an uncharacteristic violent outburst, doctors dismiss it as teen angst. But Secret Service agent Karen Ray, who guards the family with her life, is convinced Cam's issues are serious.

Review:

Praise for The First Family:

"Terrifying and all too plausible--Daniel Palmer continues his father's tradition of delivering authentic and high-velocity medical suspense. The combination of medical chills and high-level Washington make The First Family irresistible." --Joseph Finder, New York Times bestselling author of Paranoia and The Switch

"Palmer's The First Family gives you likable characters to root for, a top-notch villain, and enough excitement to make your hair curl. Have fun with this thriller." --Catherine Coulter, author of The Devil's Triangle

"Double the trouble, twice the action, and quadruple the enjoyment, this is a high-octane game changer." --Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author of The Bishop's Pawn and The Lost Order

"High-stakes and intelligent, The First Family is everything you want in a medical thriller. Chilling!"
--Robert Dugoni #1 Amazon, Wall Street Journal and New York Times bestselling author of My Sisters Grave

"The First Family is adrenaline-fueled entertainment that twists, turns, surprises and satisfies!" -John Lescroart, New York Times bestselling author

"A Palmer novel transports you into the complex world of medical-legal-social ethics. The First Family doesn't disappoint, wrestling with the murky questions of what we can do versus what we should do. Gripping." --Kathy Reichs, New York Times bestselling author and creator of Bones

"Daniel Palmer's latest thriller The First Family seamlessly blends genomics, politics, and life in the White House into a riveting potboiler of a story. If you crossed the best of Robin Cook's medical mysteries with the insider authenticity of David Baldacci's political thriller, you'd end up with a book like this, a story that grabs you by the throat and won't let go until the last page is turned." --James Rollins, New York Times bestselling author of The Seventh Plague
