Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Elizabeth was taken from David one night, tortured, killed and abandoned by the serial murderer known as KillRoy; he was left for dead. Eight years later, he gets an e-mail which leads him to a camera feed, and sees her standing on a street corner looking at him. And suddenly he is on the run, accused of her murder and of others, dependent on the whim of a violent pusher whose child's life he saved. Harlan Coben's new thriller Tell No One is a terrifying kinetic novel of abuse of power, false accusation and the things that go wrong with the most careful of schemes. David Beck is a memorable character--a dedicated doctor whose mourning for his wife has gradually become itself a sort of paralysis, but who has a surprising resilience under stress; he has not got much going for him in the terrible situations in which he finds himself, but he makes ingenious use of what he has got. This is an intelligent thriller in which we get to watch suspect, police and some very unpleasant heavies chase each other around in impressively convoluted circles. Coben is one of the best multiple-bluffers in the business. --Roz Kaveney --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Product Description
Eight years ago David Beck was knocked unconscious and left for dead, and his wife Elizabeth was kidnapped and murdered. For the next eight years Dr Beck re-lived the horror of what happened that day every day of his life. Then one afternoon, he receives an anonymous e-mail telling him to log on to a certain web-site at a certain time, using a code that only he and his wife knew. The screen opens on to a web cam - and it is Elizabeth's image he sees. Is it a practical joke? But as Beck tries to find out if Elizabeth is truly alive, and what really happened the night she disappeared, the FBI are trying to pin Elizabeth's murder on him. And everyone he turns to seems to end up dead?

5.0 out of 5 stars WOW! - "Tell Everyone" about this read, 14 Mar 2002
By A Customer
WOW! is the after effect from this book. From beginning to end you cannot put this down. I lived and breathed my days at work to find out what happened next!
Effectively written in first person for the main character (Beck), this book is a gripping tangle of intertwined personal agendas and feelings. You could not guess the end result in a million years!I was addicted to this book, even to the very last page, and had to physically prevent myself from reading the end chapter to see the outcome!
Exciting, tearful, addictive, absolutely thrilling!
I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes to be "blown away" with a believable thriller, and certainly felt like I had been slapped in the face by a FANTASTIC read!
The best book I have read for a long time.

5.0 out of 5 stars tremendous,compulsive read from start to finish, 10 Dec 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Tell No One (Hardcover)
The brief on the back of the book did enough to make me buy this one from an author i'd never heard of before. Within the first few pages I was hooked. Sad widower getting on with life after his lovely wife's grisly murder years ago gets an email from someone with content only his wife should know! Is she still alive? Is someone posing as her? Absolutely compulsive reading that took me under 24 hours from start to finish (including sleep time!). There are many twists and turns in this one with more than a few people raising suspicions of guilt/guilty knowledge. Lots of secret squirrel stuff as well give this an UNMISSABLE tag. My wife picked it up in curiosity after I put it down and it was read again in under 2 days by her. All I can say is GO AND BUY IT! (And my name's not Harlan by the way!)

5.0 out of 5 stars A brilliant and suspense-filled thriller, 3 Aug 2007
By KM (England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)      
After hearing nothing but good things about Harlan Coben's novels I finally picked up and read his 2001 stand-alone thriller, 'Tell No One' and I was not disappointed in the slightest.

The book begins when David Beck and his wife and long-time love, Elizabeth visit the Beck family lake house for their 13th anniversary. During a late night swim in the lake David and Elizabeth are attacked and left for dead. A few days later Elizabeth's beaten body is found.
Eight years later and still struck with grief and heartache from the death of his wife, David receives a mysterious e-mail with a link to a webcam where his wife appears to still be alive, muttering the words "I'm Sorry". The email also tells him to Tell No One, leaving David wondering if his wife is still alive and he is now also a main suspect for some other bodies found at the lake and possibly also for his wife's apparent murder.

This is an absolutely brilliant read that is impossible to put down once you start reading it as you just have to know what's going on and what's going to happen next. The story is a little far-fetched at times and sometimes (especially early on) you may feel like there are a few too many characters but once it starts ironing itself out nicely this is an excellent, well written and well thought out thriller with plently of twists and suspense to keep you hooked. I highly recommend this book and I most certainly will be reading some of Coben's other work in the near future. I'm also looking forward to seeing the French movie adaption of this book once it is released on DVD.
