Description
NOW A NETFLIX SERIES!
The bestselling author and creator of the hit Netflix dramas Fool Me Once and The Stranger proves that the past never truly fades away in this shocking thriller.
Megan is a suburban soccer mom who once upon a time walked on the wild side. Ray used to be a talented documentary photographer but now finds himself in a dead-end job posing as a paparazzo. Broome is a detective who can’t let go of a cold case. Each is hiding secrets that even those closest to them would never suspect.
When the terrible consequences of long-ago events threaten to ruin their quiet suburban lives, they will come to the startling realization that they may not want to forget the past at all. As Megan, Ray, and Broome are faced with the excitement of temptation and the desperation and hunger that can lurk behind even the prettiest facades—they will discover a hard truth: the line between one kind of life and another can be as whisper-thin as a heartbeat.

5By RUN AWCGreat tv series!!Plot twist
5By ViorianaThis book is a real page turner!Stay Close
1By ann loves booksAn absolutely ridiculous story that is filled with cliche and cringe worthy dialogue.If you like people tortured
1By palmclef65This is totally unlike other Corbin books. Only read it if you get off on Torture.Coben never disappoints
5By MaamcAnother of Harlan Coban's hit stories that takes one in and doesn't let go. Always entertaining, interesting and makes you wonder who these characters remind you of, so real are they. I'll get more of Coben's books.Different Isn't Necessarily Better
2By downhomealaI've read a lot of Colbain's books and this one surprised me - not in a good way. The plot is complex but is both improbable and unexciting. The characters are pasteboard models of victims suffering from traumas, mental disorders and asocial behaviors. This is capped off with interior dialogue that could have been stolen from one of those "Romance"novels available at your local grocery.Boring & Disjointed
1By JudgeArtSo poorly written I could not endure finishing this book...hope his others are better.Stay close
3By T HillerIt was an OK book,not his best .i am giving it 3 starsPoorly written
1By HeidiStHPoorly written, slow read. Super cheesy phrases and lines. Vocabulary was a bore. Words such as "seedy" and "cesspool" used over four times in the book. I was turning pages just to reach the end.I'm picky and I thought it was great
5By My fav video appI read it quickly and thought the author did a nice job of slowly relaying the story to keep you guessing, but not so slow you get bored. Downloading more novels by this author now!Quick read
4By Jay cakesHard to put down. Excellent character development although it was a little predictable. My first Coben read. Will read more of him.Stay Close
2By D.S.M. In S.C.This was the least interesting Harlan Coben book I have read thus far and I have read nearly every one. I had correctly identified the murderer one-third of the way into the book. Usually there are last minute surprises in his books that keep you guessing-not so in this book. It was a very predictable murder mystery and he recycles some dialogue from some of his other books. I was very disappointed.Stay close
1By Mercaz33333I love reading Harlan coben, but this book was painful to read. Harlan, did you really write this one???? I want my money back.Stay close
5By LiguidsilverI thoroughly enjoyed the various characters and how the stories wove in and out and around each other. The plot twists and details were intriguing and kept this reader engaged.Stay Close
5By Book BroadAs usual, Harlan Coben has created a fascinating and intricate web of suspense and intrigue!
