Thank you to Hachette Audio and NetGalley for a free copy of this audio book in exchange for my honest review.

When Sami was in college, he woke up covered in blood, had a knife in his hand, and was lying next to a woman. Twenty-two years later, Sami sees the same woman standing at the back of his classroom. He chases her and begins to solve the mystery of how this woman could be there.

This book is classic Harlan Coben! The story is twisty, but it doesn't drag on. It keeps the reader engaged and interested throughout the book. As always, the ending was surprising, but the reader is left knowing that all the clues had been dropped along the way.

I didn't realize that this was the second book in a series. I'll have to go back now and read the first book.

I was recently asked if Harlan Coben books are graphic, and it's interesting that I said no, based on the description of the book. However, Coben writes in such a way that the reader gets the point, but he doesn't linger on the gory details. The picture is painted in such a way that the reader can fill in any details that are needed.

This book is recommended to anyone who enjoys a good thriller that will keep you on your toes.
