About this deal

Peter’s reputation was ruined online when he was accused of drugging and raping his wife’s sister. Tola thinks Peter committed suicide afterwards. Wilde wonders if he faked his death. Things go horribly wrong for Dr. Marc Seidman, almost too bad to believe. Marc lies in bed after being shot twice by an unidentified assailant; his wife has been murdered, and his six-month-old daughter, missing.

There's a reason Harlan Coben has second to most books on my shelves (to Matthew Reilly), which thinking about it is funny because I tend to lean toward female authors... anyway, this was - like most his other books - AMAZING. Could. Not. Put. It. Down. If you haven't read a book by Harlan Coben, why not? You are seriously missing out on some amazing characters and stories. A match is actually found - a close relative, but the relative deletes their details immediately. However, Wilde doesn’t give up, but his research results in him becoming embroiled in a secret online community, intent on exposing trolls - and then people start to die - one by one!Born in 1962 in Newark, New Jersey, Coben went to Livingston High School before studying political science at Amherst College where he was a member of Psi Upsilon fraternity-alongside Dan Brown who would similarly go on to become a household name in the writing world. Wilde decides it’s time to research his past. Maybe find out what actually happened all those years ago. What could have possibly occurred that left him alone, scavenging in the woods. Well… all it takes is a DNA test. And one little MATCH! Finally, after Wilde was born, she decided to run away with Daniel and become an informant. But the crime boss found out and came after her.

Wilde (from “The Boy in the Woods”) apparently locates a second cousin and his birth father through DNA.I am assuming Sofia got pregnant with him around age 20 as well, so both she and Daniel would have been born in the early 1960s. So this means Sofia is young in the picture, like ten or twelve.

Reluctant at first, Myron undertakes to help her not just to become her agent, but because he realizes that they have tie from the past that binds them together. Horace, Brenda’s father, coached Myron during his heydays in basketball, although the two lost touch after Myron's career tragically ended following a nasty knee injury. Question for others - was Hester in Coben’s Myron Bolitar series? I remember her “articulate” phrase from other books and am thinking it must have been from more than possibly The Boy in the Woods.Anyhoo… the members of Boomerang are there to right wrongs and they cross paths with Wilde when he discovers the murder of an online troll – with links to Peter. It could become a little confusing – given the layers of the plot and the fact we seem to have ‘good’ and ‘bad’ vigilantes but kept guessing if they’re one and the same or a rogue element… or something else entirely. There is an entire chapter of a court room scene with Hester defending a man accused of murder. In the end it has absolutely nothing to do with anything - nothing to do with Wilde, nothing to do with DNA, nothing to do with reality TV. Nothing to do with the story. (??) Myron Bolitar, a sports agent and occasional investigator, is summoned by Clip Arnstein, the owner of the New Jersey Dragons, following the mysterious disappearance of star player Greg Downing. So when he runs into the stranger—whose motives are unclear and information is irrefutable—it turns his life upside down. No sooner does he confront his wife, Corinne, about the devastating secret he learns, than his mirage of a perfect life disappears as though it never existed.
