Richard North Patterson. I just finished his latest, "The Race" about the primary race of a candidate for President on the Republican ticket.

Patterson is the best-selling author of about 13 legal thrillers over the last 27 years. Almost all of them feature a San Francisco based lawyer. I have read everything he has written.

This latest one uses a John McCain type candidate to explore the ramifications of running for office today. Very well done, with some excellent plot twists. Patterson is a damn good storyteller.

RICHARD NORTH PATTERSON's thirteen novels include eight consecutive international bestsellers, all greeted by critical acclaim–for example, comparing his Protect and Defend to such novels as Allen Drury's Advise and Consent and Gore Vidal's Lincoln. Formerly a trial lawyer, Patterson served as the SEC's liaison to the Watergate special prosecutor and is now on the boards of several Washington-based advocacy groups dealing with gun violence, political reform, and reproductive rights. He lives on Martha's Vineyard.
