[A] superb thriller writer on great form
Harlan Coben is an American who has been heralded as the successor to John Grisham. His heroes are ordinary guys dropped into horrible situations. He's a much better writer than Grisham; No Second Chance has a terrific opening . . . writers don't really go into Coben's line of work to make us turn the pages slowly; if you can devour it at a sitting, it's a hit
Coben is expert at taking such a situation and following it through in an exciting and moving way. No Second Chance is a consummate and thrilling piece of storytelling
Gripping, high-octane thriller in which a man is driven to his limits in search of his kidnapped daughter
Propelled into the front rank of thriller writers with his superb novel Tell No One, Coben's latest book proves that he has the wit and stamina to stay there. This is another tautly plotted thriller, written with heartfelt emotion and dashes of wit
Page-turning tension makes this one of the top thrillers of the summer
