The first 100 pages are near perfect. The plot kinda stalls in the middle, some revelations don’t get explored. The danger is ever present until it’s not. I don’t know, it was worthwhile. The first act was just too good for the story that followed.

Good story. Some scenes keep me at the edge of my seat.

I read the Elvis Cole/Joe Pike series religiously. This is not part of that series, but is equally compelling. This one is a stand alone novel with a number of deep, long standing relationships. It’s a murder mystery in the present with ties to past deaths. It’s a government conspiracy story. And yet, it is a can’t put down thriller. Another great read from Harlan Coben.

mysterious medium-paced

This was fun. Having just read another who done it, this one maybe lacked a little character depth but made up for it with speed and a bit of humor and that's nice. I like the main character chatting with his dead brother--it kept it a bit light. While at times it seems a bit emotionally trite (teenage love/angst) at other times it hits a raw cord.

It's summer. It was a fun read.

Another great book by Harlan Cohen. One day I will guess the ending to one of his books.

Everything is done right and it was a thrill to read from beginning to end. The only ding against it would be that I likely won't be coming back to reread this. There is nothing new being done here but it is still a good story.

Deze is iets minder goed, meer voorspelbaar dus minder verrassend dan ik gewend ben van Harlan.

Not the best Coben book, but I still liked it.
