Gone for Good

by Harlan Coben

Will Klein lost the love of his life and his brother in the same moment. On October 17, eleven years ago, Julie Miller was found brutally strangled in the basement of her house in the township of Livingston, New Jersey. On that day, Will's brother, Ken Klein, became the subject of an international manhunt, accused of the crime. He has not been seen since. Will has tried to get on with his life in the intervening years. He has a beautiful new girlfriend, Sheila, and a job working with the homeless. But when his mother reveals on her deathbed that Ken is still alive, and shortly afterwards Sheila disappears, the cracks start to show in his landscape again. But it is only when he finds that Sheila herself is wanted for a savage double murder that his life really starts to fall apart...

I’m normally a big Harlan Coben fan, but this one fell a little flat for me. I think that part of the problem was the first person perspective. It meant that we were mired in Will’s mind while he grieved, and things got a bit… overwrought. Beyond that, the plot got very over-complicated, and after a while I couldn’t keep track of who was doing what to whom. I still love Harlan Coben, but this definitely wasn’t my favorite.
