Harlan Coben never fails to keep you turning the pages as fast as you can to see what will happen next. This novel is no different. The lives of a normal suburban couple are turned upside down when a stranger appears and tells the husband something about his wife that he did not know. Without spoiling the story, it is difficult to go into too much detail. Suffice it to say that the wife disappears, and the husband spend the rest of the novel frantically trying to find her.
In some ways, this novel is more ominous that Coben's usual fare. The stranger is able to turn lives upside down with a little persistent digging on the Internet. It is a cautionary tale for the modern era. The edning was, t me, a bit disappointing, but that is a small thing compared to how riveting the book is.
