Summary: Tell Everyone...This Book Is Awesome
Comment: Just when you thoughts Harlan Coben couldn't get any better, he does. He continues his literary magic with this truly phenominal book.
Coben, the mastermind behind the excellent Myron Bolitar mystery series, puts forth an amazing effort in TELL NO ONE. Meet Dr. David Beck, a loyal, caring doctor who lost his wife whom he has loved since the second grade, but manages to carry on. Left for dead himself, his wife, Elizabeth, is positively identified for dead as another victim of a serial killer. Eight years later, he receives an anonymous e-mail on the anniversary of their first kiss, leading him to believe that she may somehow still be alive. The twists and turns are a plentiful, and the adventure is one of non-stop excitement.
Coben brings together a wonderful group of characters that all blend together incredibly nicely. From the drug-dealing yet good-hearted father, Tyrese, to special agent, Nick Carlson, this super cast of characters is so well-developed, you can't help but thoroughly enjoy this book. There are even a few familiar names from the Myron Bolitar series, but you'll have to read the book to find out.
Overall, this novel is nothing less than spectacular. Coben's unique, yet thorough writing style shines ever so brightly in TELL NO ONE. The cogent storyline is well-developed, and the nerve-shattering suspense is outstanding, keeping you guessing until the unbelievable, surprise ending. It will not let you down.

Summary: Conspiracies and cover-ups abound in this complex thriller.
Comment: Harlan Coben's "Tell No One" is like a giant jigsaw puzzle. This book is so convoluted that when I reached the end, I had to double back and reread certain passages to clarify how all the pieces fit together. For the most part, however, "Tell No One" is a satisfying, fast-paced and exciting thriller.
Dr. David Beck is a widower who is still grieving after having lost his wife, Elizabeth, eight years ago. She was apparently abducted and murdered by a serial killer, who is now on death row. Suddenly, some mysterious events occur which call into question everything that David thought was true about the past. He starts investigating on his own, hoping to unearth the truth about the events surrounding his wife's death. Suddenly, David finds himself on the run from the police who suspect him of murder, and from some bad guys who have their own reasons for wanting him silenced.
Although this plot sounds trite and is reminiscent of many similar thrillers, Coben pulls it off. One way that he does this is by creating some colorful characters such as David's lawyer, Hester Crimstein, a ruthless barracuda who takes no prisoners in defense of her clients, David's friend Shauna, a lesbian/model whose loyalty is exceeded only by her aggressiveness, and Eric Wu, one of the most menacing and deadly villains that you will ever come across. The most entertaining character is Tyrese Barton, a street smart drug dealer whose friendship for Dr. Beck proves to be a life-saver.
The book's dialogue is fresh and witty and the action scenes are thrilling. My biggest reservation about "Tell No One" is that some of the explanations at the conclusion of the novel were extremely far-fetched. However, if you enjoy a lively thriller that will keep you on your toes from the first page to the last, you will probably be entertained by "Tell No One."
Rating: 5
Summary: Exciting with many wild twists
Comment: I was hestitant when starting this book, however, it proved to be very exciting. 'Tell No One' has many twists and turns and the ending is just as exciting. I highly recommend this book.
It is one you won't be able to put down.
