PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Bestseller Coben (Hold Tight) has a knack for taking everyday nightmares and playing with life s endless what ifs, as shown in this stand-alone thriller, a tightly choreographed dance of guilt and innocence, forgiveness and retribution. Frank Tremont, a world-weary, near-retirement investigator for New Jersey s Essex County, has to face his failure to solve his last case the disappearance of a teenage girl. Meanwhile, Dan Mercer stands accused of being a sexual predator thanks to the ambush journalism of Wendy Tynes, a tabloid TV reporter, who must cope with her husband s death caused by a drunken driver as well as reckon with the possibility of Mercer s innocence. When Tynes finds a link between a father of one of Mercer s alleged victims and others felled by scandal, she could become a killer s next victim. If the wealth of characters dilutes the suspense, Coben gives readers lots to think about when judging rights and wrongs. 500,000 first printing; 12-city author tour.
Customer Reviews
This is a really good story but…
It’s so complicated! Maybe this is what happened, maybe that’s the person who did it, maybe it’s a different person who did it, maybe they did it for this reason, no they did it for that reason, no they didn’t really do it, someone else did. But did they? I wish I had taken notes from the beginning!
Great Book
WOW is all I can say, didn’t see that coming!,

This was a great read it has more twists and turns than anything I have read in a long time, maybe for a future story the author can put Win and Wendy together for a tale. That’s a fine paring and the back story is already done. Looking forward to the next one. Thanks Harlan
