I really enjoyed this book. I carried it with me everywhere because it kept you in suspense throughout the entire book and I just couldn't put it down. The ending was an unexpected twist. I kept thinking there were going to be loose ends but he tied them up neatly at the very, very end! This was my first book by this author and I plan to read many more.
writes,
Harlan Coben delivers what could be the page-turner of the year in this novel. The story is as tight as Elmore Leonard writes them, the sarcastic humor is reminiscent of Coben's earlier character, Myron Bolitar, and the suspense and mystery are top-notch. Coben loads the story with twists and turns aplenty that will keep you turning the pages long after you're supposed to be asleep (as the bags under my eyes attest to).
Ignore the plot-holes you come across, and simply enjoy the story.
Highly recommended for anyone who likes suspense that isn't intellectually challenging.
