Paul Copeland, County Prosecutor, is in the middle of a big and controversial case. At first, it seems that all the odds are against him but as the tide starts to turn, Paul begins to believe that someone is trying to force him to plea bargain the case. Twenty years ago, when Paul was eighteen and a camp counselor, his sister and three others from camp disappeared. Two bodies were found but Paul's sister and the body of another boy were never located. The incident changed everything in Paul's life and now, someone seems to be stirring the case up again. Is there a chance that Paul's sister is alive? What really happened between his parents? Who is behind the effort to discredit Paul and his entire family with secrets from the past?
I have become a huge Harlan Coban fan and this is the first of his stand alone books that I have read. I thought this book was great. Lots of twists and turns and the combination of the story of Paul's sister's disappearance plus his current case and the implications of both on his life and his future. As always, I think Coban's strength is the believability of his characters. They are wonderful people but flawed as we all are.
