A Myron Bolitar novel with a twist!
Myron hasn’t heard from Terese Collins in years. Not since their affair ended without explanation. He’s had no contact with her since, so her call catches him off guard. She’s in Paris, she says, in trouble and only Myron can help. Terese tells him a sad story she’s never before revealed: a good marriage, her struggles to get pregnant, the happiest moment of her life when her only child was born, the day everything she’d ever loved was taken from her. As the years passed Terese heard nothing from her ex-husband, until the phone call that brought her to Paris.
But on arrival, Terese finds her husband has been murdered, leaving her as a prime suspect. Then comes a startling piece of evidence that turns the entire case upside down, laying bare Terese’s long-buried family secrets in the most shocking way and leaving Myron nowhere to turn for help. Caught in a foreign landscape where nothing is as it seems, he must tear apart the city – and eventually the globe – fighting for answers to unfathomable questions that will take Myron, and Harlan Coben’s readers, where they have never gone before.

Harlan Coben thrillers are precision-tooled page-turners. If you're looking for immediate immersion in a book that will not let you go until it's done, then Coben's your man.
Drum rolls and thunder - he's back! After a three-year gap Coben has delivered the latest episode featuring one of the most captivating protagonists in contemporary Thrillerville... Oh, the heart-thudding brilliance of it all - the suspense, twists, and a climax so amazing that you might need a lie down in a dark room to recover.
A scary story on several levels, as the thriller tidily - but never glibly - incoporates various twenty-first century controversies.
[A] typically fast-paced but dark and bloody tale of family secrets and sinister organisations set in Paris and London.
Harlan Coben is one of the best thriller writers around. Check out his latest, Long Lost, a superbly funny yet ultra-riveting epic
Myron Bolitar is back - and then some. ****
