Book Description:
Suburban New Jersey Detective Napoleon âNapâ Dumas hasn't been the same since senior year of high school, when his twin brother Leo and Leo's girlfriend Diana were found dead on the railroad tracksâand Maura, the girl Nap considered the love of his life, broke up with him and disappeared without explanation. For fifteen years, Nap has been searching, both for Maura and for the real reason behind his brother's death. And now, it looks as though he may finally find what he's been looking for.
When Maura's fingerprints turn up in the rental car of a suspected murderer, Nap embarks on a quest for answers that only leads to more questionsâabout the woman he loved, about the childhood friends he thought he knew, about the abandoned military base near where he grew up, and mostly about Leo and Dianaâwhose deaths are darker and far more sinister than Nap ever dared imagine.
My Review:
Harlan Coben is one of my favorite authors. I simply loved his Myron Bolitar series and was glad for the Myron guest appearance in this story. I found this book to be a thrilling page turner with lots of twists and turns. The characters are well-drawn and I especially loved Nap, the investigator. I found the book to be well-written and the plot was very exciting and believable. I didn't guess the killer until the surprise ending when it was revealed. I look forward to Harlan's next book and I would highly recommend this novel to those who love mystery thrillers.
