But even though The President’s Daughter has the President playing a pivotal role it will not be a sequel of The President Is Missing. This second collaboration will feature brand new characters and hence will have a standalone plot.

During their joint announcement, Bill Clinton and James Patterson spoke in detail about The President’s Daughter and their second collaboration. Bill Clinton said that he never imagined he would be writing a book with a “master storyteller” like James Patterson. He also added that he believes that readers will enjoy reading the novel as much as he is enjoying working on it. James Patterson also spoke about this second collaboration with Clinton. He called it a “highlight” of his career. The prolific novelist also assured his readers that they “won’t be disappointed” by the upcoming novel.
