On October 17, eleven years ago, Julie Miller was found brutally strangled in the basement of her house in the township of Livingston, New Jersey. On that day, Will’s brother, Ken Klein, became the subject of an international manhunt accused of the crime. He has not been seen since.

Will has tried to get on with his life in the intervening years. He has a beautiful new girlfriend, Sheila, and a job working with the homeless. But when his mother reveals on her deathbed that Ken is still alive, and shortly afterwards Sheila disappears, the cracks start to show in his landscape again. But it is only when he finds that Sheila herself is wanted for a savage double-murder that his life actually starts to fall apart…

Reviews

'A magnificent great doughnut of a book . . . Coben has written one of the most expertly paced, unguessably twisting plots I have come across in a long time . . . thoroughly satisfying
DAILY TELEGRAPH
A propulsive thriller, a touching love story and a subtle analysis of dysfunctional families . . . Coben creates a host of striking characters . . . This is top-notch thriller writing
OBSERVER
This is superbly crafted, high-adrenalin entertainment
TIMES
Gone for Good is Harlan Coben's follow-up to the bestselling Tell No One and will not disappoint . . . Ingenious and gripping, this is another thriller to stir the heart
GUARDIAN
A criminally good novel . . . [a] plot with so many twists and turns I felt both giddy and wildly exhilarated by the end. What makes Harlan Coben so special is his ability to pick ordinary people who harbour extraordinary, and often deeply dark, secrets
DAILY MIRROR
In Coben's novels trust nothing and no one. He is a superb writer and a devilish plotter . . . Take my word, this story is exceptional
INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY
This twisty treat is one of the best thrillers you'll read this year
