Book Description
Will Klein lost the love of his life and his brother in the same moment ... A superb thriller from the No.1 bestselling author.
Product Description
On October 17, eleven years ago, Julie Miller was found brutally strangled in the basement of her house in the township of Livingston, New Jersey. On that day, Will's brother, Ken Klein, became the subject of an international manhunt accused of the crime. He has not been seen since. Will has tried to get on with his life in the intervening years. He has a beautiful new girlfriend, Sheila, and a job working with the homeless. But when his mother reveals on her deathbed that Ken is still alive, and shortly afterwards Sheila disappears, the cracks start to show in his landscape again. But it is only when he finds that Sheila herself is wanted for a savage double-murder that his life actually starts to fall apart...

Format:Paperback
I think this is now my fifth Coben novel and as always I have not been disappointed. As the synopsis suggests there is a very simple and strong main plot, but, as with all of his novels Coben weaves very intricate and intelligent sub plots. Throw the main plot and sub plots into the melting pot with very heartwarming 'goodies' and blood curdling 'baddies' and you have the perfect recipe for this excellent book!
The main character Will Klein is a likable anti hero who is more than open about his lack of 'guts' and often is lead by his heart rather than his head. The only thing I would say is that he often appears 'too good to be true' he has a certain naivety and vulnerability which is sometimes unrealistic.
But gripe over! I read this is only three sittings because I simply could not tear myself away from it! Each chapter brings a new character, a new dilemma, a new twist of fate or a new life threatening situation and try as you may you will not know when to quit!
My advise is to buy this book now, pencil in your diary a good couple of hours 'me time', get some chocolate and put your feet up! You are in for a treat....enjoy!!
PS the last chapter is fabulous!

I read my first Harlan Coben book about a month ago and am now going on to my 4rth.. He is now my favourite author and has yet to dissapoint...Gone For Good was fantastic, he keeps you guessing right until the last page... Tell No One is another brilliantly written one of his.. Definately worth it.. Enjoy

Format:Paperback
Another fantastic novel from Harlan Coben -keeps you on your toes from beginning to end - This is what a real thriller is all about, it entertains the mind and I love the characters. I have not missed one of his books yet and like many authors, he does not lose pace with his books, they keep getting better and better. Read the synopsis above but I don't want to give more away. Well worth the time reading this one. Gone for Good

One of Coben's best....

I'm sorry to put a damper on this one but it's a bit of a curate's egg.
