Harlan Coben is one of my favourite authors but it took me a while to get into this one.
Once I did, it was worth the effort.
Head-snapping twists abound. Good stuff.
This is my second Harlan Coben book and, like the other, it never made me really care about the characters or the situation. I often criticize books for being over the top with the plot but Coben's books are equally underwhelming to me. The plot seemed to change mid course from the search to prove a man's innocence to... what? That wasn't really made clear until the end of the book. The conclusion had the typical double-twist, which is over-used, and it even included a semi-twist after that for a preachy ending.
