4 1/2 stars. There was even a Myron Bolitar appearance!
I have never read a book by Harlan Coben I didn't love and this one is no exception. It is a great suspenseful read with a fantastic ending.

Nap, a police detective , is haunted by his twin brother Leo and Leo’s girlfriends Diana’s death 15 years ago. It was ruled as an accidental death by a train collision but the same night Nap’s girlfriend Maura also disappeared from his life. Now, after 15 years Maura’s prints turn up in a cop homicide case which throws out everything Nap believes to be true about his brother’s death.
I am a big fan of Harlan Coben and this book did not disappoint. It was a non-stop , fast paced, entertaining psychological thriller that I devoured in one sitting. Complex characters, witty dialogue with plenty of twists and turns makes it a thoroughly enjoyable read.
Many thanks to Random House UK, Cornerstone /Century& NetGalley for providing an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest and fair review.

I've watched a few Netflix series based on Harlan Coben books that I've enjoyed so decided to give one of his books a try.
This story centers around Nap's quest to both solve the death of his brother 15 years before and why his brother's friends are dying one by one and whether it's related to a secret government facility located in his hometown.
The ending totally threw me for a loop. Well done.

I finally had one figured out from the beginning,
I guess after reading everyone of Coben’s novels, and rereading plenty, I have subconsciously figured out his patterns.
This was another fast paced page turner, that really delivered solid portraits of some of the characters. Cohen has a way of selling characters with little development page wise.
If you’re already a fan, and haven’t read it, don’t leave it sitting on your nightstand for months like I did. If you’re not, I say go read “Tell No One” and then jump into this.
You’ll be hooked.

Book group read. I wouldn’t have chosen this at all, but I thoroughly enjoyed it and put my other reads aside so I could concentrate fully on this. A good old thriller. Will read more from this author.
