Title: Truly ROTTEN!!
Review: Whew! The fact that a book as wretched as this can receive favorable reviews from so many sources has given hope to my own literary aspirations!I was a minor fan of Folsom's until I had to suffer through this latest endevor. Previous reviewers have this book nailed - the characters are wooden and completely unbelievable. The premise is ridiculous. We have the president of the USA running around with a former cop turned gardener who uncovers a major plot based on a few whispers from a dying friend.The plot does not develop in a natural way, but is forced and amazingly contrived through countless repetitive discussions, memories, and deducements from the poorly drawn characters. The writing is lousy. If I have to read one more "conversation" between "Richard" and "Victor," I'll shoot myself.Spare yourself this read - go get a root canal instead!
