I'll always read Harlan Coben, but this was mixed for me. The scales tipped too action-adventure - prison breaks and small town gangs and the most annoying good cop/bad cop routine I've ever read in a book. (Please don't let them be recurring characters.) And yet. The father/son dynamics on all sides rang true and tender and made the action bearable. And, of course, no one paces a thriller like Coben. I stayed up past my bedtime to finish. I always do.
Graphic: Child death, Violence, Rape, and Gun violence
Moderate: Death and Pregnancy
