Synopsis"A compelling and original suspense thriller."-- Los Angeles Times "Harlan Coben is the modern master of the hook-and-twist."--Dan Brown For Dr. David Beck, the loss was shattering. And every day for the past eight years, he has relived the horror of what happened. The gleaming lake. The pale moonlight. The piercing screams. The night his wife was taken. The last night he saw her alive. Everyone tells him it's time to move on, to forget the past once and for all. But for David Beck, there can be no closure. A message has appeared on his computer, a phrase only he and his dead wife know. Suddenly Beck is taunted with the impossible--that somewhere, somehow, his wife is alive . . . and he's been warned to tell no one., For Dr. David Beck, the loss was shattering. And every day for the past eight years, he has relived the horror of what happened. The gleaming lake. The pale moonlight. The piercing screams. The night his wife was taken. The last night he saw her alive. Everyone tells him it's time to move on, to forget the past once and for all. But for David Beck, there can be no closure. A message has appeared on his computer, a phrase only he and his dead wife know. Suddenly Beck is taunted with the impossible-that somewhere, somehow, Elizabeth is alive. Beck has been warned to tell no one. And he doesn't. Instead, he runs from the people he trusts the most, plunging headlong into a search for the shadowy figure whose messages hold out a desperate hope. But already Beck is being hunted down. He's headed straight into the heart of a dark and deadly secret-and someone intends to stop him before he gets there.
As everyone knows already, to thriller and mystery readers, Harlan Cohen is one of the few masters. My personal thriller rules: It must grip me within the first two chapters. There must be a scenario where I sort of gasp and say "OMG, I have to get up early in the morning but now I must read until my eyes bleed...." The plot must be plausible, and I lived in NYC where this story is set. This plot and characters are completely plausible. The central character must be well developed and his / her thoughts and actions must read like a real person and not some canned stereotype lazily written to drive the plot. Same goes for other characters in most instances. This is one of Cohen's best and it reads as if it is current, even though it was written 20 years ago. I wish someone would make a quality film version of this book.
