On a state visit to Moscow, Billie Bradford, the beautiful and brilliant wife of the President of the United States, is abducted by the Soviets and replaced by Vera Vazilova, a superbly trained Russian undercover agent and actress who is the First Lady's physical double.

The impostor's mission--to induce the President to reveal a U.S. secret that will drastically tip the world balance toward Russia. But one false move--whether before TV cameras or in the White House bedroom--can destroy the entire masquerade.

And in Moscow, Billie also has a mission--to frantically seek ways to escape while daringly leading a Soviet intelligence officer astray about the most intimate area of her married life.

Two women, each playing a treacherous game in a foreign land, each taking a desperate gamble in the arms of the other's lover--a world-shaking gamble that only one of them can win...

The Second Lady eBook Irving Wallace

From the mind of the great Irving Wallace comes this unusual story line. And once you get into it, it's just plain fun! While you realize that chances are something like this would never happen, still you turn the pages quickly so as to figure out how this could possibly end.

And as always, Wallace creates his characters so well, you feel as though you known them.

This is not a literary work of art, yet I would recommend it to readers who like light reading.

The Second Lady eBook Irving Wallace Reviews


Gave as a gift, read it years ago!
I read this book when it was first published. I enjoyed it then, now with the potential of having a foreign born first lady made me want to reread this book.
Another blockbuster by this author. Fast paced and keeps you on the edge wondering if the plot is going to work or not. Then a mystery as to how its going to end. Of course, at the end you DON'T know what the final outcome is. One of those books you don't want to put down because you're wondering what's going to happen next. Really enjoyed this one and even though it leaves you wondering at the end it was an appropriate way to conclude the book.
I got this book because I thought that the premise, while sounding completely outrageous and unbelievable, was an excellent one. Unfortunately, I don't think that this book was well written - it was rather choppy a few times, and really some of the events were too out there to make it believable. I will probably not buy another book by this author.
Again, it sounds like a great story and I will say I LOVED the way it ended. It actually is not how I normally like endings, but it really fit this one.
If you get this book for $2 or less then it is worth it, but I would not pay full price for this one. Sorry for the not positive review.
I read this book several years ago, but recommended it to my bookclub for December. It was a huge hit! It is fantastic all the way to the last page!
THE PLAN Bring in a ringer to replace the First Lady. Russia and America are in a diplomatic contest to control a small republic in central Africa. The successor will control a wealth of uranium. The winner will also be in a position to influence the political future of the surrounding tiny countries.

During an International Women`s Conference in Moscow, the First Lady is abducted and held in a luxurious, but secluded, apartment within the Kremlin. Held prisoner, Billie Bradford must use her wits to figure out the reason for her abduction and find a way to escape and thwart their Communist plans.

Vera has spent three years undergoing intense training, reconstruction surgery, and dedication to the most minute detail in order to successfully become the First Lady of the United States. Her assignment is to seduce the President and learn the secret that will give the USSR the edge to win control over Africa and the vast stores of uranium.

The story will captivate you, enthralled you, deprive you of sleep and a social life up to the final page. Definitely 5 Stars
I adore Irvin Wallace's books! I have read and re-read The Second Lady so many times - each time I read the ending I am still confused....it is so baffling and I am always left wondering. It is simply put - BRILLIANT and exciting too. An amazing thought - replacing one person with another without anybody noticing. Quite scary in a way! They do say we all have a double somewhere - I wonder where mine is? The book is well written (as are all his books), the storyline moves at a fast pace and is pure escapism of the most pleasant kind. Try not to analyse it and dissect for plausibility - just enjoy a good story which - you never know - could be true.
