The Match by Harlan Coben
4.0
Harlan Coben returns with Wilde, The Boy from the Woods. If you've not read The Boy from the Woods you will still enjoy Match since the author references Wilde's past enough to understand although I highly recommend reading both.
Wilde was found as a child in the woods and has never known where he came from or who his family was. He's put off DNA testing for some time but now he's finally ready to search for his true identity.
As Wilde starts to contact possible family members who are matches through ancestry sites he discovers that not everyone wants to be known and not all is what it seems. Soon people are disappearing and bodies are showing up. Wilde may possibly find all the answers he's looking for but at what cost? And who is taking out their own retribution righting wrongs?
As with all Coben's books he pulls us into an intricate cast of characters who seem to have nothing in common only to put them all together in the end. Also like Coben, it's that last chapter that finally gets us!
I always look forward to the next Harlan Coben novel!
