Pirate Patty Reviews

We are back with another thriller from Mr. Coben. That is good since I’m impatiently waiting for the next Netflix book adaptation from him.

An innocent father serving life for the murder of his own son receives evidence that his child may still be alive, and must break out of prison to find out the truth in #1 New York Times bestselling author Harlan Coben’s latest breathtaking thriller.

An innocent man serving life for killing his own young son. Only he doesn’t remember doing that. Any of it. Unfortunately for him a neighbor saw him burying what seemed to be the murder weapon in the back yard. With no will to even put on a defense, he is remanded to prison.

He doesn’t have visitors. He stopped that long ago and has no wish to see anyone. However, his sister-in-law, Rachel, has come to see him and the information she has gives him a purpose. Find a way out of prison and find his son. And who put him here.

I liked David and Rachel. I did not care for the FBI people. A lot of forced conversation I thought. A lot of the cop talk was pretty much how they talk on television maybe.

I have to say as much as I love this author, I may be coming to the end of the crimes against children story.
