  Harlan Coben is a deliciously good mystery writer

  His plots have compelling, rich characters; his plots have wonderful twists and turns. I read this when I had some work to do and then stayed up far loo late to finish it. Few authors can grip me that well.

  Harlan Coben has a way of telling his stories with so much gripe, mystery and thriller. His plots are always so refreshing and original.

  A book about a county prosecutor who starts digging into the murder of his sister 20 years ago.

  This is my first read by the author and won't be my last. Just when I thought I had it all figured out, I was surprised all over again. A really good read.

He also keeps the twists in the book coming to the very end. In this book I figured all was well and the second to the last page BAM another twist I n ... (continue)

  I never once could guess at the who or what in this book. Most mysteries I can figure it out but with a Harlan Coben book he just keeps you guessing. He also keeps the twists in the book coming to the very end. In this book I figured all was well and the second to the last page BAM another twist I never saw coming. I love that in a writer. Great book.
