Publisher's Summary

Growing up, Will Klein had a hero: his brother Ken. But when Will's former girlfriend was found raped and murdered in her family's basement, Ken is considered the prime suspect, and disappears. Ken's disappearance has lasted for ten years, defying an international manhunt. He has been presumed dead. Now, Will's mother, on her deathbed, tells Will that Ken is still alive. At the same time, Will's current girlfriend disappears, and Will finds that she is not all that she seemed. With this dual mystery to solve, Will is drawn closer and closer to darkness, and to a chilling secret that causes him to reconsider what he knows to be true about Ken, his girlfriend, and himself.

What the Critics Say

"The clockwork plot keeps picking up speed...breathtaking." (Booklist)
"Coben has written another winner, guaranteed to keep readers awake all night." (Library Journal)
"A tale of manifold deceptions guaranteed to show its readers up as suckers, and to make them love every moment of the experience." (Amazon.com)
"A compelling and original suspense thriller...intriguing, clever and unique." (Los Angeles Times)

From AudioFile

Jonathan Marosz provides a straightforward no-frills narration for this suspenseful story, which pits Will Klein, a youth worker, against the FBI and the master criminals who were his fugitive older brother's friends growing up. While Marosz's narrative style is not exciting, it is serviceable and allows the listener to follow the intricate twists of the plot with ease. It also gives the listener some needed distance from the depictions of cruelty and evil that Will encounters as he tries to find out why every woman he ever loves ends up murdered.

This was a really fun story - when you thought you knew what was going on, Coben would throw a twist in. When you thought the story was wrapping up, there was another twist. Another excellent Coben book that will keep you guessing that I highly recommend.

The pointless, graphic details in this book turned my stomach. I couldn't even listen to the first part of this book. The narrator is terrible, but so is the story. Waste of a credit in my opinion.

Harlan Coben is a master story teller. I have listened to every one of his books from audible. Wether it is part of a series or stand alone like this one I have never been dissapointed. "Gone For Good" twists and it turns and actually stunned me at the end. Maybe I am gullible or maybe I just love a good story who knows. I don't think you will be dissapointed if you purchase this book.

By: Denise (USA)
June 24, 2009
I recently discovered Harlan Coben books and of the 3 that I've listened to so far I LOVE!!! This one; however, I don't think I'm going to be able to get through. The story sounds great, but the narrator is so bad I can't even get into the story. He's so monotone and boring!!! I will NEVER listen to a book if this narrator is reading it. I wish I could get a credit back for downloading this book. Live and learn I guess.

By: Greg (Griswold, CT, USA)

I found the narrators voice to be quite intollerable. Seemed to "over-act" everything like a bad saturday night live skit.
The book itself not bad, but not one of Harlan's best in my opinion.
