Book of Fate / Brad Meltzer / 768 pages

Wes Holloway is still aide to ex-president Manning.  He was shot and disfigured during a supposed presidential assassination attempt at a motor speedway on the Fourth of July eight years ago.  The day forever changed his life, as well as Manning's and Ron Boyle's whom Wes thought dead.  Wes felt responsible for Boyle's death because he had given Boyle permission to ride with the president.  Imagine his shock when he sees Boyle alive and well at a Manning appearance in Malaysia.  How can this be?  Although he is told  by the CIA, the FBI, and the Secret Service to leave it alone, Wes is compelled to investigate - at risk to life career, and sanity.
