Begynd ikke at læse, hvis du har vigtige ting for næste dag, for Hold tæt vil holde dig vågen hele natten." –San Francisco Chronicle"En ven gav mig Harlan Cobens første roman i gave. Jeg slugte den på en nat og bestilte derefter alle han romaner via internettet. Tryllebundet af kombinationen af suspense, humor, vold og hans bund-solide skrivestil, læste jeg den ene efter den anden. Der er ikke mange forfattere, som kan tåle den slags intens granskning. Men jeg kan simpelthen ikke få nok af manden!" –Liza Marklund

"Gone for Good contains more plot twists than you can count, with a jarring revelation in nearly every chapter. . . . [Harlan] Coben has crafted a taut thriller with a slew of compelling characters. . . . As subtle as a shotgun, and just as effective."-San Francisco Chronicle

Harlan Coben er ikke uden grund kåret som en af de mest ’binge’-værdige forfattere nogensinde af Reader’s Digest, og med 70 millioner solgte bøger på verdensplan behøver han næppe nærmere introduktion. Nu er han aktuel med sin ifølge anmelderne mest fængslende thriller til dato. I 15 år har politimanden Nap Dumas forsøgt at finde svaret på, hvad der i virkeligheden skete med hans tvillingbror, som blev fundet omkommet sammen med sin kæreste på togskinnerne i udkanten af Naps barndomsby. Få dage efter ulykken slog hans livs kærlighed, Maura, op med ham og gik under jorden.Nu, 15 år senere, nærmer Nap sig omsider et gennembrud i efterforskningen. Noget tyder på, at de to sager er forbundet, men sandheden viser sig at være langt mere grum og foruroligende, end han nogensinde havde forestillet sig.Med sin sædvanlige flair for spænding og indsigt i menneskets psyke dykker Coben denne gang ned i de store hemmeligheder og små løgne, der kan ødelægge et forhold og en familie, ja endda en hel by. Giv ikke slip er inspireret af virkelige hændelser fra Cobens egen opvækst.Anmelderne skrev:”Coben er forstædernes folkepoet! Det er hans nye, velsmurte krimi Giv ikke slip et perfekt eksempel på … Det er ren poesi!”– New York Times“Man kan simpelthen ikke holde op med at læse, når man først er gået i gang … Hemingway kunne have lært noget af Coben, som skriver lige ud ad landevejen og med pondus.”– forbes.com”En stærk historie … fyldt med sorg, kærlighed, skyld og ansvar… og hverdagsemner, som alle læsere kan relatere til.”– Huffington Post
