When Harlan Coben writes a stand-alone book, odds are it will feature the reunion of long lost loves. These reunions aren't all they are cracked up to be in at least one of the lovers minds as there is some deep dark and disturbing secret which coupled with character flaws puts someone's life in danger.
Kat Donovan is a Manahattan detective. The daughter of a legendary cop, killed in the line of duty, she is lonely and very much alone. Eighteen years earlier her father died and her fiancé Jeff left her. Since then her friends dispaired until someone got the bright idea of giving her an internet dating membership.
And there online Kat sees Jeff- older, grayIng and widowed. Her heart skips and she sends him an email. Can true love be rekindled?
Jeff's reaction to her however is surprisingly indifferent. Has he moved on so far as to forget what they once had? But then the mere act of reaching out to Jeff leads Kat into a major missing persons case. Along he way, she enlists the help of an odd group of irregulars-a kid missing his mom, several cross-dressers, and some members of organized crime.
It's not very realistic, but it certainly holds your attention.
