Myron is determined to keep his friends' children safe, and so he makes two neighborhood girls promise him that if they are ever in a bind but are afraid to call their parents, they must call him. Several nights later the call comes . . .

What I like about Harlan Coben:
He doesn't throw in sex scenes, graphic and gory details and the mysteries always keep you hooked from beginning to end. Although Myron does take a beating a time or two. If you like mysteries and haven't read any of Harlan Coben's books, pick up a copy. I haven't read the books with Myron Bolitar as a main character in sequence, but I'm not sure that it really made a difference not doing so.
