Book Description:
The home was top-notch New Jersey suburban. The living room was Martha Stewart.  The basement was Legos -- and blood.  For sports agent Myron Bolitar, the disappearance of a man he'd once competed against was bringing back memories -- of the sport he and Greg Downing had both played and the woman they both loved.  

Now, among the stars, the wanna-bes, the gamblers and groupies, Myron is unraveling the strange, violent life of a sports hero gone wrong, and coming face-to-face with a past he can't relive, and a present he may not survive. In novels that crackle with wit and suspense, Edgar Award winner Harlan Coben has created one of the most fascinating and complex heroes in suspense fiction -- Myron Bolitar -- a hotheaded, tenderhearted sports agent who grows more and more engaging and unpredictable with each page-turning appearance.

If you've never read Harlan Coben, you're in for a real treat! He is definitely one of my favorites. Fast paced, with so many twists and turns it's always a surprise. You won't want to put this one down till you finish!

Everything you love about the Bolitar series:
- an overarching sports theme
- rogue private investigation of a farfetched mystery
- big brother Win always looking out for Myron
- Esperanza (and now Cindi) around to provide sarcasm and comedy

Characters and familiarity makes it fun. The plot is secondary.

3.5 stars out of 5

I found Harlan Coben just last year and have read every single book he has on the market. I love his writing and the way he builds his characters. It is an absolute pleasure to read his books in order and see their progression.

originally I thought the sports aspect would be a turn-off for me, but it has so little to do with the story that it didn't bother me at all.

If you're looking for a quick, good, fun read, this is the book for you.

Another great Harlan Coben book. Myron and WIn are great in this book. It is very hard to put down once you start reading as you just can't figure out what is going on. It also has some humor and romance as well as murder and mayham. A great book!

It was hard to put this one down - I'm hooked on the Myron Bolitar series!

This is a really good book. It is #3 in the Myron Bolitar series. Myron gets to play a bit of Pro-basketball and learns more about what happened back when he got the knee injury that ended his career.
