𝑡𝑢𝑩𝑢𝑫𝒀'𝑺 𝑭𝑢𝑢𝑳 π’ƒπ’š 𝑯𝒂𝒓𝒍𝒂𝒏 π‘ͺ𝒐𝒃𝒆𝒏 is a perfect Thriller option from @grandcentralpub & @hachetteaudio so graciously provided to me via @netgalley and out March 25th!

If you are a thriller fan, you know Coben's signature style of intense plots with fantastic characters who have no shortage of sharp humor to go along with the intellect. This is no departure from form, and I was sucked into this story from the first page.

I also feel like a synopsis does no favors for thrillers, so all I will say about this one is that a past event from his college years comes hauntingly back to Sami Kierce, a former detective.

I loved this twisty story that gave another layer into Sami. I love this character and his reassembled life, not least of which is his banter-loving wife.

This suspense was quite unnerving. I loved the pace and multiple directions. It left me feeling like I was utterly inept at following clues and so glad I allowed this tale to pull me along.

I loved the audio, so expertly voiced by @vikasadam with all the tension and humor this story needed. I can only imagine how fun this was to read aloud!
