Description

The worlds of celebrity and sports are brilliantly dissected and turned upside down in #1 New York Times bestselling author Harlan Coben's debut thriller.


 


Theirs was a marriage made in tabloid heaven, but no sooner had supermodel Laura Ayars and Celtics star David Baskin said "I do" than tragedy struck. While honeymooning on Australia's Great Barrier Reef, David went out for a swim--and never returned.


 


Now widowed and grieving, Laura has a thousand questions and no answers. Her search for the truth will draw her into a web of lies and deception that stretches back thirty years--while on the court at Boston Garden, a rookie phenom makes his spectacular debut...

Reviews

Keeps you in suspense until the final page BIG ISSUE Compelling journey through a complex crime - take a deep breath - its a great ride. BETTY BOOKMARK Slick, fast-paced drama - another page turner from the master of suspense, Harlan Coben MY WEEKLY Coben tells you in the foreword to throw this book away if you haven't read his others, as it's his first novel. Don't listen to him. It's brilliant.
