Imagine if you will riding a roller coaster as you pull into the loading platform the track elongates and takes you through one more corkscrew. That is what reading this book was like. I have always likened reading Harlan Coben to riding Space Mountain, you know there are twists and turns but you can't see them in the dark. Harlan outdid himself this time.
Back in the last century a young boy was found living by himself in the woods. No one could determine where he came from or how he got there. He scavenged (and stole) from homes around the woods. He made one friend, David, before he was caught and became a part of our society.
Our story starts many years later when David's son is in high school and ask Wilde for help. One of his classmates is being relentlessly bullied and then disappears. I don't to say any more for fear of giving too much away.
It is a gripping story with so many twists and turns that you might need a seat belt on your recliner.
One of the characters is obviously a friend of Myron Bolitar.
10/10
