Grace Lawson is a happily married mother whose life is turned upside down after she receives an old photograph of her husband with a group of people. When she asks her husband Jack about the photos origins, he immediately disappears. When he finally telephones briefly, Grace senses that he is in danger. Her efforts to protect her family force her to investigate secrets which others will kill to protect.
Like all of Harlan Coben's standalone thrillers, Just One Look is very suspenseful. The super-scary Eric Wu is back,. The occasional violent scenes are balanced by warm ones; indeed one of Coben's strengths is creating characters you cheer for because they act with the interests of their loved ones at heart.
The ending (which I will not give away) was complicated and perhaps a bit more contrived than some of his other books. Coben's books are always worth the ride though.
