- The Master Of Twists and Turns -
I had the pleasure of meeting Harlan Coben once during an impromptu book signing and I am glad I did. I am still new to mysteries (being a mainly sci-fi/fantasy reader) but reading his work has been nothing but great pleasure.
I have noticed that he is truly a master of the twist, that is, the unexpected hitting you full force just when you think you have figured it all out. I read this novel within four hours and was not disappointed in the least. It all starts with a photograph found by a suburban wife while picking up her children from school. From there begins a story involving an ice cold Asian assassin, a husband who is more than meets the eye, and a 15 year old rock concert that changed the lives of everyone within the novel. This novel, like so many of his others novels, kept me guessing to the very end.
Highly recommended.
