hectaizani's review against another edition
3.0
This entry in the Bolitar series was darker than the past few. The humor is still evident. Win is still an over the top psycho best friend. Big Cindy is Big Cindy. Myron as usual was tasked with helping a new client who naturally has quite the back story. But this time the ending took a turn that I wasn't expecting. Is this the book that portends things to come in Coben's writing style? I've read some of his later works and they definitely qualify as dark. I enjoyed it, it just wasn't what I was expecting from everyone's favorite Jewish sports agent detective.

I'm curious to see how this book shifts the series going forward.
