Excellent story, flows beautifully, grips you from the start. Harlan Coben really knows how to develop his character is, and takes you along for the ride. Great from start to finish.

Thirty years ago, Wilde was found as a boy living in the woods. He still doesn't know where he comes from, and Naomi Pine is now missing. Naomi was bullied at school. Hester Crimstein, a television criminal attorney, asks Wilde to use his unique skills to help find Naomi. Wilde must venture back into the community where he has never fit in in order to find Naomi. I loved reading about Hester again, a character from Coben's Myron Bolitar series. This book was very entertaining with twists that kept me interested. It had great humor that Coben is noted for and interesting characters. The ending was a complete surprise that I did not see coming. I'm looking forward to visiting again with Wilde in the near future.

This book, while interesting, lacked the suspense I expect from Mr. Coben.
I loved the fascinating character Wilde but wanted more about his time growing up in the wild. Is there a sequel ?

However I did enjoy the story but it was a little tame.

Absolutely loved this story. Gripping from the first page to literally the last.
Well developed characters and multiple stories going on and developing to converge together for the holy crap really moment. It had laugh out loud moments, I do that moments and wow, did that happen moments, making it a wonderful read.
