Right now I'm reading 24 Declassified: Veto Power by John Whitman. For a book based on a TV series, it's not that bad, and for 24 fans, it's a pretty good read.
It takes place about a year after the first book in the series, 24 Declassified: Operation Hell Gate, which was the last book I read before this one. So far, I still like the first one better, as it had a better story (Hell Gate more or less focused mainly on Jack Bauer and was more action-oriented, while Veto Power focuses on multiple characters and has a more political-oriented plot), a better use of the 24 characters (Hell Gate used just about everyone that appeared in CTU during season 1 (Jack, Nina, Tony, Jamie, Milo, Mason, Chappelle, and Richard Walsh were all used) while so far Veto Power has only used Jack, Nina, Chappelle, Walsh, and Paulson (who was just a minor character on the show, as he is here), and a better writing style (the books have different authors, as Operation Hell Gate was written by Marc Cerasini).
Jam it back in, in the dark.
