Eleven years ago, Ken fled his family's suburban New Jersey neighborhood after Will's ex-girlfriend, Julie Miller, was raped and strangled. The Kleins eventually convinced themselves that Ken perished on the lam. But as Will discovers, the facts are not so simple. On her deathbed, his mother tells him that Ken is still alive.

I enjoyed this book a lot (Overdrive borrowed copy for my Nook.) It's a super easy read and I am certainly interested in reading other books by Harlan Coben. I don't want to say too much about the plot, it's your typical suspense/thriller about a man's efforts to find his long lost brother. The plot twists throughout kept this read very entertaining.

"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..." (From Amazon)

Loved this book! Had me up all night reading to find out what happens next and how it all ends.

How could you not love this book? :] All those twists and turns, how you won't know everything until you get to the end. It's very overwhelming, and mind-boggling, and everything in between. I just love it.

My favorite book!!! So suspenseful and shocking! At the end of every chapter I wanted to read the next page just to be able to put the book down.
