Aufgepasst, hier kommen Obama und Biden! Ex-Vize-Präsident Joe Biden kann sich so gar nicht damit abfinden, ein Ex-Vize-Präsidenten-Leben zu führen. Er langweilt sich auf seinem Anwesen mit Hund und Frau beinahe zu Tode, außerdem vermisst er sein Idol und besten Freund, Ex-Präsident Barack Obama. Der scheint sich derweil prächtig zu amüsieren, ob beim Bungee-Jumping von einem Hochhaus in Hongkong oder beim Speedboot Fahren vor der Küste Südafrikas. Doch dann führt der Tod eines alten Bekannten das Dream-Team Obama und Biden wieder zusammen: Bidens Lieblings-Amtrak-Fahrer hat sich ausgerechnet vor einen Amtrak-Zug geworfen. Und das ist nicht das einzig Seltsame: Der alte Mann war vollgepumpt mit Drogen – und er hatte eine Karte bei sich, auf der Bidens Anwesen markiert war. Eines ist Obama und Biden sofort klar: Dies ist ein Fall von höchster Tragweite. Ein Fall von höchster Komplexität. Ein Fall für die Ex-Präsidenten Obama und Biden!

      The team of Barack Obama and Joe Biden returns--but this time in an audiobook mystery, delightfully narrated by Joe Barrett. Listeners will get a closer look at their unique relationship and overhear their conversations. Their different personalities and styles are deftly rendered by Barrett, who gives Obama the cool and unemotional tone one would expect and Biden a gruff yet warm voice. When Joe Biden's favorite conductor dies in a mysterious accident, President Obama comes to his Delaware home to tell him of the death. Listeners will be moved to hear Biden confess that he's disappointed that the president seems to have made new friends and left him behind. Barrett raises the tension when the pair realize the conductor was murdered and they team up to find the killer. Adding to the atmosphere are historical and campaign tidbits and good-hearted humor.

      The careers of Barack Obama and Joe Biden take an unusual turn after they leave the White House in this entertaining, offbeat whodunit from Shaffer (Fifty Shames of Earl Grey). Fuming at his Delaware lake house, Joe hasn’t heard in months from his BFF, Barack, who has been busy hanging out with celebrities such as actor Bradley Cooper. One night, Barack and a Secret Service agent show up to share some sad news—the death of Finn Donnelly, an Amtrak conductor Joe was friends with, who was struck by an Acela Express that morning. The presence of a map of the Biden home in Finn’s work desk led the Wilmington PD to suspect that he may have been stalking Joe, so they reached out to the Secret Service. Joe is further unsettled when a friend on the force, rumored to have been the inspiration for Dirty Harry, reveals that a bag of heroin was found on the body. Unwilling to believe that family man Finn was a junkie, Joe sets out to investigate what becomes a murder case, eventually aided by the hyper-cerebral Barack. Fans of Carl Hiaasen’s comic crime novels will have fun. Agent: Brandy Bowles, United Talent Agency.
