Balance Of Power – Richard North Patterson

Description

Balance of Power is the gripping third novel in Richard North Patterson’s Kerry Kilcannon political thriller series. Just five months into his presidency, Kerry Kilcannon prepares to marry his fiancée, but their wedding day is shattered by a national tragedy—a mass shooting that claims the lives of innocent victims and sends the country into mourning.

Driven by both outrage and moral conviction, President Kilcannon takes on one of the most divisive and politically explosive issues in America: gun control. As he launches a bold and emotionally charged campaign to reform gun laws, he finds himself facing fierce opposition from powerful lobbyists, ruthless politicians, and even those within his own party. But this battle comes with a devastating personal cost—one that will test the strength of his marriage and his ideals.

With razor-sharp insight and unflinching realism, Patterson weaves together politics, tragedy, and moral dilemmas in a story that feels more relevant than ever. Balance of Power is a tense and emotional read that questions how far one man is willing to go to make a difference—and what it will cost him.
