SynopsisThe worlds of celebrity and sports are brilliantly dissected and turned upside down in #1 New York Times bestselling author Harlan Coben's debut thriller.

While honeymooning on Australia's Great Barrier Reef, David went out for a swim--and never returned. Now widowed and grieving, Laura has a thousand questions and no answers. Her search for the truth will draw her into a web of lies and deception that stretches back thirty years--while on the court at Boston Garden, a rookie phenom makes his spectacular debut..., The worlds of celebrity and sports are brilliantly dissected and turned upside down in the debut thriller from the bestselling author and creator of the hit Netflix drama The Stranger .

  • WOW (in a bad way)

    This early view into the author's um…mindset, pov, whatever--is stunning. In all the bad ways. Sophomoric, sexist, amateurish. Mildly suspenseful, mildly. The nerve of a man, writing from the perspective of a woman, when he clearly has a lot of disdain for real women. A lot. The book has dumb errors too. "You're body" i.e. "your body". If "Tell No One" was the first of his books you read, you will be disgusted by this simpleton freshman effort.

  • Harlan Coben Rocks

    I started to read Harlan Coban books about eight years ago, and have not stopped since. I didn’t even know this particular book existed until I look back over my list of his books and I didn’t realize that this particular book was his first novel. I can’t wait to finish reading it. He is the best author I have ever read.

  • A minute of reading this book is a minute wasted

    Got tired of 'I love him so much' and mysterious stranger undergoing plastic surgery. Plus the ending about her father pulling all the strings was down right stupid.
