Praise for The Stranger "Coben can always be relied on to generate thrills from the simplest premises, but his finest tales maintain a core of logic throughout the twists. This 100-proof nightmare ranks among his most potent." -- Kirkus , starred review Praise for Harlan Coben and his novels "Coben is simply one of the all-time greats--pick up any one of his thrillers and you'll find a riveting, twisty, surprising story with a big, beating heart at its core." --Gillian Flynn, bestselling author of Gone Girl "Once again, Coben has brilliantly used a current trend, in this case Internet dating, to create a can't-put-it-down thriller." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) on Missing You "Coben... has written another twisty ripped-from-the-headlines page-turning stand-alone that could be his best yet." -- Library Journal (starred review) on Missing You "Once again, Coben has expertly constructed and then dismantled a time bomb of a plot." --Booklist on Missing You " Missing You is another winner in Coben's stack of winners." -- Huffington Post "This is a dive-in, lose-sleep and miss-your-bus-stop reading experience." -- Associated Press on Missing You "The narrative is immersive, and the well-drawn characters and twisting plotting are stellar. With such a cool hook and a surprising and satisfying payoff, don't wait six years to read what might be Coben's best since Tell No One ." -- Library Journal (starred review) on Six Years "Any new book from Coben is a cause for celebration, and one as good as Six Years is cause for jubilation." -- The Huffington Post "With Six Years , the author shows once more how it's done. . . . The beauty of Coben's craftsmanship here is how often he can lure us into not perceiving what's clearly right in front of our eyes." -- The Washington Post "A Harlan Coben Home Run. Stunningly effective. This is Coben's Vertigo , his masterpiece." -- Providence Sunday Journal on Six Years "Energetic and action-packed, this is one of those novels that has you flipping pages at warp speed." -- USA Today on Six Years "A tour de force stand-alone . . . satisfying on every level." -- Booklist (starred review) on Stay Close, Praise for The Stranger "This page-turner is one stranger that readers will want to meet." -- Associated Press "Coben can always be relied on to generate thrills from the simplest premises, but his finest tales maintain a core of logic throughout the twists.

A secret destroys a man's perfect life and sends him on a collision course with a deadly conspiracy in this shocking thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author Harlan Coben. The Stranger appears out of nowhere, perhaps in a bar, or a parking lot, or at the grocery store. His identity is unknown. His motives are unclear. His information is undeniable. Then he whispers a few words in your ear and disappears, leaving you picking up the pieces of your shattered world... Adam Price has a lot to lose: a comfortable marriage to a beautiful woman, two wonderful sons, and all the trappings of the American Dream: a big house, a good job, a seemingly perfect life. Then he runs into the Stranger. When he learns a devastating secret about his wife, Corinne, he confronts her, and the mirage of perfection disappears as if it never existed at all. Soon Adam finds himself tangled in something far darker than even Corinne's deception, and realizes that if he doesn't make exactly the right moves, the conspiracy he's stumbled into will not only ruin lives--it will end them., #1 New York Times bestselling master of suspense Harlan Coben delivers his most shocking thriller yet, proving that a well-placed lie can help build a wonderful life-- and a secret has the same explosive power to destroy it.

Listing photo was pulled from internet and used as placeholder, according to sellers listing. Thats on me for buying the cheapest one without looking at listing fully. Would have been better to not use another persons photo on seller's listing as the specific guide book advertised has reflective bits, the one i recieved did not.. At least it arrived and is decent enough to use and look at. Packed ok. Shipped promptly. Thank you.Pokemon Platinum Version: The Official Pokemon Guide (#396979033428)
- k***i (38)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseFantastic price, faster shipping than expected, item as described. However, packaging was a thin plastic envelope instead of bubble/ cardboard. Book arrived new yet slightly damaged. Not worth asking for a return due to the very low price, yet would suggest to seller/ future buyers to have better packaging for shipping. Thanks.
- e***u (4506)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseWell the stock photo was just that, a stock photo and the item did not include the other material shown, which I had asked about. A chance you take. Otherwise, in good shape, shipped promptly, plastic bag envelope (nothing wrong with that for the price, but subject to beatings by the PO dolts. Yes, i will still buy from them if the price is reasonable.
