Summary

From

Along with his Myron Bolitar series, Coben's stand-alone novels have cemented his reputation as a solid writer and a relentless plotter of high-octane entertainment. "I'm pretty sure it all worked out in the end, with no loose ends, but I wouldn't want to take a test," the Washington Post says of the "rococo plot" in Caught. The author's "family" novels address some important social issues and will resonate with anyone who has children, and the Internet angle is timely. With his latest effort--though, admittedly, a generally slower-paced effort with weaker characterization than in other novels--Coben delivers solid entertainment. Again.

Review

"The thrill-a-minute action zooms on sharp, slippery twists and turns in a white-knuckle race from start to finish."
-Nora Roberts

"With Caught, Harlan Coben knocked another one out of the park!"
-_New York Times_ bestselling author Lisa Jackson

"_Caught_ is dark-hearted, quintessential Coben, and his character Wendy Tynes is completely driven to make things right. This novel is psychologically twisted, fascinating, and guaranteed to make you both look over your shoulder and sign up with the good guys."
-_New York Times_ bestselling author Luanne Rice

"Quite simply, Harlan Coben is one of my favorite authors. His books have it all: nail-biting suspense, roller-coaster plots, relevant social issues, and pitch-perfect characters. Most important to me, his stories have a lot of heart. He writes about men-and women-you know, people who could be your neighbors, your friends, your family."
-_New York Times_ bestselling author Kristin Hannah

"A Tilt-A-Whirl of a story....Buckle up and prepare for whiplash."
-Sandra Brown
