Reviews

Praise for Harlan Coben:

"Nobody writes them better than Coben."
-Associated Press

"Harlan Coben's family thrillers touch us where we live."
-"The South Florida Sun-Sentinel"

"Fiction reading doesn't get much better than this."
-"The Huffington Post" on "Caught"

"Coben is one of the best authors around at writing page-turning suspense."
-"Chicago Sun-Times"

"Coben has perfected the ability to keep numerous balls in the air, plot threads twisting at once, the readers knowing they will all converge at some point, the suspense lying in just how the author will manage it."
-"The Daily Beast on Live Wire"

Megan Pierce has a closet full of skeletons that have been hidden for years. The fast life she once lived as a dancer in Atlantic City has been replaced with a life in the New Jersey suburbs, two children, and a loving husband. Yearning for the thrills of her former life, Megan pays what she believes to be an incognito visit to her former haunt. Her path soon crosses with Detective Broome, who is deep in the case of a man missing for 17 years and facing the possibility of a serial killer. Megan is forced to expose her racy past and reconnect with former lovers in order to help Broome put an end to the violence. Verdict While the story of suburban families tangled in dark situations is familiar, Coben (Live Wire) still engages readers from the first page. A plot layered with twists, action, and a scandalous history will have his many fans flying through this new offering. Coben devotees have come to expect certain thrills, and they will not be disappointed. [See Prepub Alert, 9/19/11.]-Madeline Solien, Deerfield P.L., IL (c) Copyright 2012.
