About the book

Delve into the heart-pounding pages of thriller mastermind Harlan Coben's latest novel, where the past comes back to haunt ex-detective Sami Kierce in unexpected ways. Though his memory remains crystal clear, the details of a long-buried secret from his college years refuse to align...

Picture this: a young Sami Kierce, fresh out of college, finds himself in Spain on a backpacking adventure with friends. A gruesome discovery awaits him one fateful morning - blood stains his hands, a knife lies beside him, and the lifeless body of his girlfriend, Anna, lies nearby. Bewildered and panicked, Sami's screams pierce the air as he flees the scene.

Fast forward twenty-two years, and Sami is now a struggling private investigator juggling fatherhood, odd surveillance jobs, and teaching amateur detectives in the evenings in the Big Apple. It's during one of these classes that Sami locks eyes with a woman at the back of the room - and realizes with a shock that it's Anna. The same Anna he thought was dead.

Driven by a deep-seated need for answers, Sami embarks on a quest to uncover the truth behind that fateful day so many years ago. As he delves into the shadows of his own past, Sami will prove once and for all that he is no one's pawn in this high-stakes game of cat and mouse.
