Publisher Description
Ten years after the high-profile kidnapping of two young boys, only one returns home.
A decade ago, kidnappers grabbed two boys from wealthy families and demanded ransom, then went silent. No trace of the boys ever surfaced. For ten years their families have been left with nothing but painful memories and a quiet desperation for the day that has finally, miraculously arrived: Myron Bolitar and his friend Win believe they have located one of the boys, now a teenager. Where has he been for ten years, and what does he know about the day, more than half a life ago, when he was taken? And most critically: What can he tell Myron and Win about the fate of his missing friend? Drawing on his singular talent, Harlan Coben delivers an explosive and deeply moving thriller about friendship, family, and the meaning of home.

"There isn't much that could bring Win Lockwood out of his self-induced hermitage, but there is one thing: a missing child. From Europe to New Jersey and back again, Myron and Win try to locate 2 boys kidnapped years before. They find one - or have they? Coben is at his best with plot twists and turns, the kind that make you look at everyone you know and wonder if you REALLY know them. As I said to him at a book festival once: "Your books have proven to me that you can't trust anyone." He agreed heartily. "

Quotes

“The lasting appeal of this series lies in Coben’s sympathy for ordinary people who do desperate things when they’re swept up in circumstances they can’t control.”
— New York Times Book Review -
“Coben knows how to play with readers’ expectations, and he’s crafted another suspenseful and twisty tale.”
— Associated Press -
“Coben’s latest reminds us not only of his roots but also his mastery of the genre…Home is everything great storytelling is supposed to be.”
— Providence Journal -
“Narrator Steven Weber deftly captures the easy camaraderie between Myron, Win, and a cadre of returning favorites from the Bolitar series. Subtle variations in cadence and tone make the characters distinguishable and their punchy dialogue easy to follow. As the action picks up, Weber reads with a fierce intensity, raising his voice to an all-out roar at the climax of one particular chase sequence. Weber’s range of accents—British, Indian, Italian, New Jersey, to name a few—is also impressive and adds another layer of enjoyment to this expertly narrated thriller.”
