About this deal

As the story unfolds you see and feel the impact the kidnapping has had on the families (alcoholism, divorce, etc. His essays and columns have appeared in many top publications including the New York Times, Parade Magazine and Bloomberg Views. Fat Gandhi (Real name: Christopher Allan Weeks): a human trafficker living in London who initially holds Patrick and (possibly) Rhys hostage.

So I was a anxious to read Home, and after I read it I was anxious to read other reviews on Goodreads. One of these twists occurs near the close of the novel and threw me for six, turning the central mystery of this novel on its head. I will admit to not loving the Myron Bolitar series as much as Coben's other novels, but read all of them too. Coben chose to tell the story through the alternating viewpoints of Myron and Win which I found very effective.The story also has a perk for romance fans since Myron is engaged to his long-time, on-off girlfriend Terese. Two six year old boys had been kidnapped ten years prior – best friends, Patrick and Rhys had been on a play date when everything went wrong. I found this novel compelling from the very start and the suspense was maintained throughout the whole novel. Working with Win, Myron is able to rescue Patrick from his captor, but is unable to secure another teenager thought to be Rhys Baldwin.

So, when out of the blue, Win phones from London asking for help, Myron drops everything to help his old friend. If you shoot someone with a gun, you are trained to aim for the middle mass so that if your aim is slightly askew, you can still hit something.

I think that this is a series that readers really don't want to miss so I do recommend reading all of the books from the beginning. Apart from the tale of the missing boys which lies in the centre of this novel, Coben’s skill in carving secondary characters is in full view in Home.

Hay algo en la desaparición de los dos chicos hace diez años que, suponiendo que la investigación de la época hubiese sido lo suficientemente rigurosa, no hubiera dado lugar a este desenlace.It probably won't come as a surprise that my favourite things about this novel were the banter, sarcasm and humour.

That leaves Melon Shirt, their beloved leader, who has probably attained that rank by being somewhat more brutish and cunning than his fallen comrades.

Ten years ago, Rhys Baldwin, who is Win's nephew, and his best friend, Patrick Moore, were abducted from the Baldwin home.
