About this listen

 It's a profile, like all the others on the online dating site. But as NYPD Detective Kat Donovan focuses on the accompanying picture, she feels her whole world explode, as emotions she's ignored for decades come crashing down on her. Staring back at her is her ex-fiancé Jeff, the man who shattered her heart eighteen years ago.

Kat feels a spark, wondering if this might be the moment when past tragedies recede and a new world opens up to her. But when she reaches out to the man in the profile, her reawakened hope quickly darkens into suspicion and then terror as an unspeakable conspiracy comes to light, in which monsters prey upon the most vulnerable.

As Kat's hope for a second chance with Jeff grows more and more elusive, she is consumed by an investigation that challenges her feelings about everyone she ever loved - her former fiancé, her mother, and even her father, whose cruel murder so long ago has never been fully explained. With lives on the line, including her own, Kat must venture deeper into the darkness than she ever has before, and discover if she has the strength to survive what she finds there.

Critic Reviews

Coben's accomplished plotting shows why he tops the bestseller lists, and his supporting characters are as memorable as ever.
"Coben draws the disparate plot strands together with masterly authority."
The absolute master of tense and punchy has pulled off another tightly-plotted treat for crime fans... Superb stuff.
"A truly nerve-shredding thriller."
Genius American crime writer Coben has a knack of writing mysteries that are emotionally engaging as well as taut and suspenseful, and this is perhaps his most deeply felt effort yet, with a witty, smart woman at its centre.
"King of twisty thrillers Harlan Coben returns with another good 'un... Packed with atmosphere and shock twists, this is worth turning off your phone for!"
This book held me spellbound. It is superbly paced, it has believable, credible characters, it is, in short, a brilliant story, told by a writer who is at the very top of his game. And now I have to go and try to catch up on all the damn work I failed to get on with because of this book! If you see this book, buy it and read it. (Michael Jecks)
"[A] gripping thriller."
This fast-moving novel grabs attention from the opening page and does not let go until the final surprise. Gripping, suspenseful and occasionally poignant, this is a great read.
"The sheer brio of Coben's narrative plate-spinning gives it all an entertaining chutzpah."
"A master of the multiple twist. Just as it seems an explanation is within reach, the reader is hammered with another, even more shocking surprise." (Marcel Berlins)
Coben orchestrates his story perfectly as Kat begins to sense the magnitude of the horror at work ... Once again, he has brilliantly used a current trend, in this case internet dating, to create a can't-put-it-down thriller
The best-selling master of suspense has written another twisty ripped-from-the-headlines page-turning stand-alone that could be his best yet

Another amazing story by Harlan Coben. It’s grabs you from the very first chapter and keeps you going to the very end. My only negative, and it’s a big one, is the narrators choice of voices for the male characters - they are truly terrible. He does the female voice as well, but he makes every male depicted to be under the age of 35 into a total moron, and it’s very offputting.

Another excellent Harlan Coben thriller

After viewing a number of miniseries adaptations of Harlan's books on Netflix, I was curious to "read" one of his books. It didn't disappoint. Every story is that bit different and always has lots of twists and turns. I am definitely a fan!

A terrific thriller with twists and turns and amazing narration. The narrator captures all the many characters with great diversity of timbre accent and delivery. Satisfying story and not predictable.
