4.0

 This is my first Harlan Coben novel, but after reading Runaway I have a feeling I'll be needing my next "fix" of his writing much sooner rather than later. Coben ropes you in quickly with his emotionally relatable characters, real-world setting, and fast paced writing, for a suspenseful, action packed book that is hard to put down. By time his parallel plot lines converge and various plot twists unravel, the reader can't help but to reflect upon the character's decisions throughout the book with one question in mind...what lengths would you go to in order to save someone you love?
