À propos de cet audio
An instant number one New York Times best seller
Named one of the most anticipated novels of the season by People, Associated Press, Time, Los Angeles Times, Parade, St. Louis Post-Dispatch, The Guardian, Publishers Weekly, and more.
From the number one best-selling authors Hillary Clinton and Louise Penny comes a novel of unsurpassed thrills and incomparable insider expertise — State of Terror.
After a tumultuous period in American politics, a new administration has just been sworn in, and to everyone’s surprise the president chooses a political enemy for the vital position of secretary of state.
There is no love lost between the president of the United States and Ellen Adams, his new secretary of state. But it’s a canny move on the part of the president. With this appointment, he silences one of his harshest critics, since taking the job means Adams must step down as head of her multinational media conglomerate.
As the new president addresses Congress for the first time, with Secretary Adams in attendance, Anahita Dahir, a young foreign service officer (FSO) on the Pakistan desk at the State Department, receives a baffling text from an anonymous source.
Too late, she realizes the message was a hastily coded warning.
What begins as a series of apparent terrorist attacks is revealed to be the beginning of an international chess game involving the volatile and Byzantine politics of Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Iran; the race to develop nuclear weapons in the region; the Russian mob; a burgeoning rogue terrorist organization; and an American government set back on its heels in the international arena.
As the horrifying scale of the threat becomes clear, Secretary Adams and her team realize it has been carefully planned to take advantage of four years of an American government out of touch with international affairs, out of practice with diplomacy, and out of power in the places where it counts the most.
To defeat such an intricate, carefully constructed conspiracy, it will take the skills of a unique team: a passionate young FSO; a dedicated journalist; and a smart, determined, but as yet untested new secretary of state.
State of Terror is a unique and utterly compelling international thriller cowritten by Hillary Rodham Clinton, the 67th secretary of state, and Louise Penny, a multiple award-winning number one New York Times best-selling novelist.

Couldn't Finish It
I had high hopes for this book because I am a fan of Louise Penny's writing. Sadly, this was not up to her usual standard. The plot was not believable because it was too contrived. It got to the point where I couldn't stand it any more and I quit listening about three-quarters of the way through. The fact that the book was longer than it needed to be didn't help.
It was off-putting, too, that Joan Allen sounds a lot like Hillary Clinton. As a consequence, I couldn't avoid being aware that this was Clinton's attempt at some sort of validation or redemption.

another boring American hero story
aren't we tired of this theme where America is bigger and better and smarter and tougher and ..... than life? I guess it sells. Such a disappointment, it was hard to stay awake.

Absolutely loved this book
I'm not usually a reader of suspense novels, but bought this because it was co-written by Ms. Clinton and Ms. Penny. I loved everything about it - the story line, the backgrounds which might not or might not be true, the wonderful description of real people (whose names have been changed to protect the .......), the amusing and sometimes downright hilarious similes. I do hope there will be a sequel.

Great book
One of the best books I have read in a long time! Didn’t want it to end, hope that there will be more to come from Ms Clinton and Ms Penny. Joan Allen was a terrific narrator!
