Shall We Tell the President?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Shall We Tell The President? is a 1977 book by English author Jeffrey Archer.

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

In its original version, a plot to kill the president of the United States, Edward Kennedy is foiled by an FBI agent working with the head of the FBI. A love story complicates the plot. Though the book features Americans, the author's British background mars the authenticity when characters say such things as "The FBI are...." The book includes descriptive details of official Washington, for which the author lists sources. After the success of Kane and Abel and The Prodigal Daughter, the new editions of the work featured Florentyna Kane (the first female USA president) rather than Kennedy as the president. In it Archer has Bill Bradley as Kane's Vice President and keeps making references to Shakespeare's Julius Caesar.
