Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

In Gone for Good Harlan Coben continues his self-redefinition as a writer of taut, grim thrillers about love and its vulnerabilities with even more success than in its predecessor Tell No One. Will has coped with the death of his ex-girlfriend, the disappearance of his brother Ken (the prime suspect in her rape and murder), as well as the demands of his job as a worker with the homeless and terminally messed-up of the New York streets. When it seems that his brother is alive after all, and his lover Sheila disappears, only to be fingered by the FBI as an accessory to murder, Will is at breaking point. Only his dangerous friend Squares and Will's determination to see justice done, and find out what he needs to to ensure it, keep him going during escalating unpleasantness. Will and Ken had some dangerous schoolfellows--among them the gangster McGuane and the assassin known as Ghost--and the roots of the jeopardy Will finds himself in lie years in his past.

Coben does paranoia and deceit as well as he did the good humour of his early sports thrillers--Will is a credible hero because he lives with his own weaknesses and is attractively unaware of his virtues and his charm. --Roz Kaveney --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

4.0 out of 5 stars A real page turner, 17 Feb 2003

N. Brett (Wiltshire, England) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE) (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Gone for Good (Paperback)

The lead character's brother has vanished for some years accused of a murder that the family do not believe he committed. Now the brother seems to be back just as someone else disappears..
My brief introduction does not do justice to this top notch thriller. You know that there will be twists as this is the nature of these types of books, but the reader is kept on their toes by a story that really does keep you guessing.
Well written and with good characterisation this really is very good. Highly recommended if you like this kind of thing.

5.0 out of 5 stars This takes the genre to a higher level, 8 Jun 2006

Brian Butterly "Varied Taste" (Dorking UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Gone for Good (Paperback)

Many books hook me and thus get me turning those pages till the early hours in anticipation. Many books have complex and enjoyable twists, turns and surprises. Not so many books are so well crafted and use the language, dialogue, characters and scenes to such a compelling and higher level as Harlan Coben does in this book. I don't want to give anything away about the plot, just to say it is mind-blowing.
I could exhaust my vocabulary of superlatives to use in this review.
This is the most BRILLIANT book I have read this year.

4.0 out of 5 stars Twisty and Turny like a Twisty-Turny Thing, 10 Jun 2004

Rich Milligan (Thatcham, Berkshire) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Gone for Good (Paperback)

This is the first Harlan Coben book I have read and I was very impressed. The plot is fast moving and twists and turns like a roller-coaster. The characters are engaging and entertaining (if a little unbelievable) and the book even manages some humour with some great one-liners.
Thoroughly recommended!

4.0 out of 5 stars Impressive but to ideal to be realistic
I must admit that I enjoy this book but it didn't impress me as much as his first book, PLAY DEAD. Things are happening too fast in this story, too fast to be real. Read more
