Caught

From the Number One bestselling creator of the hit Netflix series Missing You

De: Harlan Coben

Narrado por: Tim Machin

Seventeen-year-old Haley McWaid never gave her parents a moment's worry. Until one morning her mother wakes to find that Haley didn't come home the night before. Three months quickly pass without a word, and everyone assumes the worst.

Wendy Tynes is a reporter on a mission: to identify and bring down sexual predators via televised sting operations. Her latest target is Dan Mercer, a social worker known as a friend to troubled teens. But his story soon becomes more complicated than Wendy could have imagined.

CAUGHT tells the story of a missing girl, the community stunned by her loss, the predator who may have taken her, and the reporter who suddenly realises she can't trust her own instincts about this story - or the motives of the people around her...

The worst Coben...

What disappointed you about Caught?

..novel I ever read, or more accurately listened to. This is the abridged version and I don't know whether it was so bad because too much was edited out. The characters had no depth, and unlike most Coben characters I felt no sympathy for them at all.

What could Harlan Coben have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Character depth, a better plot.

Would you be willing to try another one of Tim Machin’s performances?

No, he was terribly annoying.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Utter disappointment, the first Coben novel to disappoint me.

Any additional comments?

Horrible reading.
