โฆ Synopsis
Imagine a President Aquino clone visiting a President Reagan type to obtain a huge loan in return for a U.S. air base near China. Then imagine that they fall in love and that (horrors!) she is kidnapped by her defense minister. Further, imagine that the Reagan character launches, in person, the search for his new true love. Add in a few peripheral characters who provide various services and the sex interest. What you get is the 18th novel by a best-selling author whose loyal fans may have to dig pretty deep to find reasons to admire this weary story. For summer reading, this brief, slick concoction chugs along reliably, revealing a plot linked to the current news. If the dialogue is a little homogenized or the development too mechanical, fans will still get a dose of Wallace-style fantasy.
