3.5 - would have been high but I feel like Coben tried to do too many things in this storyline.

Decent reporter/detective novel. A few twists that I didn't see coming. Enjoyed this quick read.

An enjoyable Harlen Coben book, my first that doesn't feature Myron Bolitar.
I liked the inclusion of Win as a nod to his other stories. It's a good read, keeps you in suspense until the end. That said, I felt it lacked a little punch, knowing the outcome to some of the characters a little earlier than I would have liked in the story.
That said, it had good characterisation and makes me want to read more of his standalone stories.

This is one of my favorite books by Coben. I don't enjoy the Bolitar series so I'm always anxious to get one of his non-Bolitar books. He delivers in this book. Great story and great twists!!

Loved this book, as always Harlan Coben throws you for twists and turns. The ending "OMG" was good, not what I was expecting but definitely a good one.
