About this listen

NOW A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES!

The bestselling author and creator of the hit Netflix drama The Stranger takes listeners into the heart of family loyalty in this twisty thriller that proves that the darkest secrets are often closest to home.

Paul Copeland, a New Jersey county prosecutor, is still grieving the loss of his sister twenty years ago - the night she walked into the woods, never to be seen again. But now, a homicide victim is found with evidence linking him to the disappearance. The victim could be the boy who vanished along with Paul's sister. And, as hope rises that his sister could still be alive, dangerous secrets from his family's past threaten to tear apart everything Paul has been trying to hold together....

Critic reviews

“[The Woods] might just be the best thing Coben has written...A gripping story, filled with fine characters and dark secrets.” - Chicago Sun Times

“A lively, fast-moving entertainment, jam packed with the bizarre plot twists that are his stock in trade.” - The Washington Post

“Another surprising and emotional story that will remain with the reader long after the last page is finished. One of Coben’s best.” - Library Journal

Great read narrated to perfection! lots of twists and surprises that totally kept me hooked. one of the things I really liked was the suspense without the gore or smut found in too many books. I will be reading more from this author and listen to more from this narrator for sure!

excellent mystery

This is a good story! I was not able to predict very far in advance what was going to happen. Often I discover the end half way through a mystery but this one was well written and I was surprised a few times. I will read more from this author!

As always Scott Brick was awesome!

Lots of twists and turns

Having listened to numerous Coben books already, I was not surprised to have enjoyed this story.
Coben's writing flows easily from one sentence to the next paragraph into a chapter very smoothly - progressively adding details but never leaving you behind.
A twist is expected from this genre and Coben achieves this. The revelation however is not an emphatic "Ha, bet you didn't see that coming!" but more of an emotional "oh my god!".
The characters (some stereotyped to a point) are believable, allowing you to easily associate and understand them.
Scott Brick is a master narrator and delivers the story with dramatic effect.

Sit back, relax and enjoy....

Not the best mystery type book - but a decent listen for in the car. Quite the twist toward the end

Interesting read - worth your time

Kind of liked this book, my second of Mr. Cobin, adn it seems like he doesn't know how to end a mystery book. Well written, but predictable. Far fetched and drawn out.. Good narrator. Just not worth the 14 hour investment.

Disappointing.

The story was a real good one with lots of twists and turns. Worth a 'read' if you can stand to listen to the narrator. He definitely took away from the book. He made me want to scream with his sorrow-filled, monotone voice whenever he was in the main character - which was a good portion of time. I was going to download another Harlan Cobin but saw Scott Brick was also the narrator for that one and I instantly decided to pass.

Great Story - Bad Narrator

We listen on roadtrips and end up sitting at our destination not wanting to stop.

Gripping and hard to put down!

Typical Coben... But that's why I listen.
Twisted stories you dont see coming. Never disappointed.. And I will continue to listen to everyone of his stories

I love Harlan

Loved how everything tied together.
Narrator made several characters sound the same.
Great for times you don't want to think too hard.

Like a fast-paced Lifetime movie

A wonderful, unpredictable thriller. I went back ad re-listened to parts of the book just to make sure I followed the twists and turns. Good reading fun!

Coben is a brilliant, versatile storyteller!
