The provocative question at the heart of the mystery: Can you believe everything you see with your own eyes, even when you desperately want to?

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Narrator January LaVoy's well-paced performance enhances the tension of this stand-alone thriller.... LaVoy's dynamic narration and distinct characterizations make this multilayered story a winning audiobook." (AudioFile)

“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, best-selling author of Gone Girl)

“[A] stellar standalone.... Coben is like a skilled magician saving the best, most stunning trick for the very end.” (Publishers Weekly, starred review)

Another excellent, can't stop listening book!

As always Harlan Coben writes another story that grabs you from the start and doesn't let go. The only flaw is that eventually the book comes to an end.

The Master does it again!

I never hesitate to purchase and listen to anything Harlan writes. This newest masterpiece is a roller coaster ride of suspense with just the correct number of twists. It is a fantastically entertaining venture and for me a novel that I "could not put down". If you have not read or heard Harlan's work you are missing out on a treat. Thank you too for a superb narration!

This is for you IF you like plot twists

This isn't just an action thriller, this is a murder mystery. And, unless you like dramatic plot twists right at the end of a story, this one just might leave you shaking your head in consternation. I think the problem with this story is that it starts out as a "how could this have happened" kind of story, but at some point it turns into a whodunit. Mysteries have to play out; however, too many pertinent details emerge as this story is brought to a rather abrupt end. First, the old bait-and-switch, then played like a cheap fiddle. That's how I feel now. The story is okay, but the way it is ends leaves a bad taste in my mouth. The reading performance was good, though. The characters are sharply delineated. And, the pacing was fine up until the end.

Twister with the Unexpected!

Always a big Coben fan, I was not disappointed I knew that tragedy would be intertwined throughout. The character flesh out as the story progresses. I don't want to give too much information. Immerse yourself and open your mind to every possibility.

I was fooled

I didn't establish much of a fondness for the lead character. She was too detached from her family (daughter) and a lot of characters and relationships were underdeveloped . I finished it, but was only because I had nothing else to read or listen to.

January Lavoy is exceptional

A very nice listen. We're taken on a wild goose chase with a surprising twist.

Superb

Always suspenseful to the end. Didn't expect that ending. Great for discussion. Very good read!

perhaps the best of Harlan Coben

Loved it! Stayed up half the night to finish. Good narration except the male characters sounded so much alike.

entertaining

enjoyable listen. the ending was a bit too quick / short with all loose ends conveniently tied up.

Typical Coben Twist

surprised ending, which really didn't make much sense until I rested on it for a while.

if you like Harlen, this book is for you
