DEALBREAKER

Myron Bolitar's hot new recruit has graduated college and now is headed for the pro's. The shining star has a problem, though. His girlfriend disappeared 18 months ago and now, he has gotten a picture of her in a magazine and disturbing phone calls. If Myron doesn't get things straightened out soon, Christian's chances in the NFL, not to mention product endorsements, will be lost. Christian's girlfriend was Myron's ex-girlfriend's sister, so Myron has plenty of interest in solving the mystery of her disappearance. Nothing is as simple as it seems and every clue leads to more and more questions.

This Harlan Coben novel was the first in the Myron Bolitar series. Although sometimes the secondary characters are a little confusing, for the most part this was a very good book. Myron is funny and good-hearted. His friends, Win and Esperanza, are a good compliment to Myron's basic good guy nature. The relationship between Myron is complex and intriguing. I honestly had no clue to the outcome until the very end. I am definitely a Myron Bolitar fan!

Rating - 5 stars
