"A master of the multiple twist. Just as it seems an explanation is within reach, the reader is hammered with another, even more shocking surprise."
"King of twisty thrillers Harlan Coben returns with another good 'un... Packed with atmosphere and shock twists, this is worth turning off your phone for!"
"Coben draws the disparate plot strands together with masterly authority."
The absolute master of tense and punchy has pulled off another tightly-plotted treat for crime fans... Superb stuff.
This fast-moving novel grabs attention from the opening page and does not let go until the final surprise. Gripping, suspenseful and occasionally poignant, this is a great read.
"A truly nerve-shredding thriller."
This book held me spellbound. It is superbly paced, it has believable, credible characters, it is, in short, a brilliant story, told by a writer who is at the very top of his game. And now I have to go and try to catch up on all the damn work I failed to get on with because of this book! If you see this book, buy it and read it.
Coben's accomplished plotting shows why he tops the bestseller lists, and his supporting characters are as memorable as ever.
"[A] gripping thriller."
The best-selling master of suspense has written another twisty ripped-from-the-headlines page-turning stand-alone that could be his best yet
Coben orchestrates his story perfectly as Kat begins to sense the magnitude of the horror at work ... Once again, he has brilliantly used a current trend, in this case internet dating, to create a can't-put-it-down thriller
"The sheer brio of Coben's narrative plate-spinning gives it all an entertaining chutzpah."
Genius American crime writer Coben has a knack of writing mysteries that are emotionally engaging as well as taut and suspenseful, and this is perhaps his most deeply felt effort yet, with a witty, smart woman at its centre.
