When Natalie married Todd, Jake Sanders was at the wedding. Jake couldn't believe that Natalie would break up with him and marry a total stranger days later. She made Jake promise never to contact her again. Now six years later, Jake comes across Todd's obituary. He has never gotten over Natalie and wonders if he should contact her. Jake finds himself flying across the country to attend Jake's funeral. But when he sees Todd's widow, Jake is stunned to see she is not Natalie. Everyone claims that Todd and his wife have been married for years. As Jake begins a search for her, he finds that every trace of her has been wiped clean.

This book is certainly a page-turner. I had a hard time setting it down. Jake is a great character you can't help but root for. He is determined to find Natalie, no matter that everyone keep warning him off. Neither kidnapping nor a beating will make him stop. Jake goes to extremes at some points and doesn't really think out his plans in advance which sometimes drove me crazy.

I liked this mystery even though it didn't have as many twists and turns as Coben's usual books. It wasn't my favorite book by this author, but I would recommend this one to anyone looking for a good mystery. My rating: 4 Stars.
