Editorial reviews

Editors Select, March 2014 - While not my go-to genre, every now and then I like to sit back and take in a good mystery/thriller. So, when I saw that Harlan Coben was coming out with a new stand-alone novel, I felt it was the perfect time to try out something new from an author I knew well by reputation (through countless rave reviews from Audible members) but never read or listened to personally. Missing Youwas exactly what I was hoping for: a cleverly conceived, suspenseful thrill-ride with cops and bad guys. There's a taken-from-the-headlines sense to the story where 40-year-old NYPD detective, Kat Donovan, discovers an old love and stumbles upon a possible gateway into a mysterious crime world through an online dating site her friend signs her up for. If you are looking for some smart entertainment and the kind of book you just can't put down, I can highly recommend Missing You. For anyone who is already a Coben fan, Missing You offers something new in a strong female protagonist, and a strong female narrator in January LaVoy to boot! Tricia, Audible Editor

Publisher's summary

Number-one New York Times best-selling author Harlan Coben set huge sales records with last year’s Six Years - and he’s poised to do it again in his next breathtaking stand-alone thriller. Harlan Coben, author of six consecutive instant number-one New York Times best sellers and a total of 24 award-winning, best-selling, and internationally acclaimed novels, returns with another ripped-from-real-life thriller full of impossibly high emotional stakes and the real-to-life characters for which he has become famous.

Great mystery

As usual, Harlan Coban weaves a great story. He keeps you guessing up to the end.

Coben doesn't disappoint!

One more reason to stay off the web! Great plot and story telling. I could not live without my audible.

Excellent book

No Wynn or Myron but one of his best to date. Really good. 10 out of 10. The entire story was intense and realistic.

Might be ok, if you can stand the male chauvinist.

Is there anything you would change about this book?

All the male characters were chauvinistic and not even half way thru and I can't listen to any more

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

Couldn't keep my interest

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

Good narrator I thought

Do you think Missing You needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

No

Any additional comments?

Not every man is an A-hole like all the characters in this book

Unexpected

The book started slowly but I am so glad I stuck with it. The story evolved into an interesting plot with lots of twists and turns.

Not His Best

Mostly entertaining but full of stereotypical characters and a soap opera plot (and subplots). Story like a mediocre TV movie. Annoying at times but worth listening to if you’re a Coben fan.
