Long Lost

Myron Bolitar is back. He has messed things up with his latest girlfriend and she has decided that it is best if she moves to Arizona. Myron gets a call out of the blue from Terese. She tells him that her ex-husband is missing and begs him to come to Paris. The mystery of Terese, along with her beauty, has always intrigued Myron, so he decides to find out what is going on. He finally hears Terese's story, and immediately he and Terese are under the scrutiny of the French police, not mention someone even more sinister. Even with Win's help, things are spinning out of control. Myron needs to protect Terese and see if it is possible that the daughter she believes to be dead might really be alive.

I love Harlan Coben and Myron Bolitar is one of my very favorite characters. I didn't love this book, though. I'm not a huge fan of international intrigue and there was too much confusion in this book. Terese has never been my favorite of Myron's girlfriends. She is always too cold and distant. I liked Myron as much as always but hopefully, Coben's next book will take us to a place where we can enjoy the Myron we know and love.

Rating - 4 stars
