About this deal

Rightly admired for his plotting, Coben pulls off some trademark twists and scores with the screwball exchanges of two FBI agents Sunday Times Is this book a little out there in terms of what David gets away with - yes. Did I care - no! I couldn't get enough of the crazy and intense story. It was really cleverly down, and really hard to put down. How can David prove to everyone that son is still alive? Surely this is proof positive! Who will listen? Equally important, who on the outside will help him?

This was hard to put down as the pace never lets up. Every time I thought David might be relatively safe to catch a break, something would happen to mess that up. There are the typical twisty moments but there’s more about David’s commitment to find and rescue his son that captured my heart and soul. His transformation from a man without a will to live to someone with everything to live for was inspiring. Just bring your seat belt because this isn’t an easy ride.I’m now used to Weber narrating Coben stories and he’s the perfect choice for his kind of storytelling. He’s gifted and he helped ratchet up the tension and excitement. And, he does sarcasm like no other. David (disguised as Philip’s son Adam) and Philip leave the prison in a car and Philip allows David to escape. Well, now. From the moment following David’s discovery that his son is alive, this story had me holding my breath, especially while he was still in prison. I loathe stories about prison life so I was willing to suspend any level of beliefs until he got out of there. Then it became a journey to figure out not only where Matthew is living but why was David obviously set up for a murder and who was the child in that bed. There aren’t a lot of moments to breathe as the search for David by two highly skilled FBI agents was relentless and smart. David’s also resourceful, with a little help from friends, some from strange corners. I try not to worry about it in the sense of... I'm not fearful of it, and some characters are good, and some characters are bad, and how they speak should reflect that as well."

What actually happened to David: he switched the license plates on Rachel‘s car. He bought the survival equipment to throw the police off and then had Rachel drive him to New York City. The story has similarities with one of my favorite Korean series “ Defendant” and the famous TV show/ Harrison Ford’s remake movie “Fugitive “! It hooks you up from the beginning! It captivates your heart, your soul, your mind at the same time. You cannot stop finishing. The pressure escalates at each chapter. You chant for David, screaming “ Run! Run! Run!” Like the rest of us, Max and Sarah try to figure out what’s going on with the DNA situation. Does the fact that the paternity test showed that David wasn’t Matthew’s father mean a) the victim wasn’t Matthew or b) just that David wasn’t Matthew’s father. Coben never disappoints for a good whodunnit and why thriller. This was told from multiple points for view and you just never knew where it was going to lead. I loved that we also got the point of view from the detectives working the case. Great book!

David and Cheryl Burroughs are living the dream - married, a beautiful house in the suburbs, a three year old son named Matthew - when tragedy strikes one night in the worst possible way. No surprise: Gertrude is behind all the attempts on David’s life. She and her minion Stefano (Days of Our Lives?) discuss the fact that Sumner failed them and debate what to do next. Hayden did think that Matthew/Theo was his son. His mother Pixie lied to him. They’d already kidnapped Matthew and she told Hayden that he was Matthew’s father. Maybe you had that old relationship that you let go... you turned left instead of right - so what happens when things go the other way?Max is right. David is actually in New York City. He has come to talk to Hilde, now known as Harriet Winchester. He studied political science at Amherst College, where he was a member of the Psi Upsilon fraternity, along with Dan Brown.

The dialogue between FBI Agents is ridiculous and get ready for word fillers galore! Want to know every burger on the menu? No worries you’ll get them all. Things get regurgitated like he was 5 years in prison, yep we got that the first time. I cannot believe so many reviewers are giving this 5 stars. According to some reviewers he pulls off a disaster now and then so I think this is one of those. A master of the intricately plotted thriller, I Will Find You bristles with the irresistible storytelling nous that is Coben’s purview Financial Times However the story was good and certainly fast paced. The way the murder was committed and the reason for it was insane but then so was the person who did it. The ending was satisfying.

Max tells Cheryl that based on a DNA test, David was not the father of “Matthew” the tragic victim. Cheryl realizes that David is right: the victim was not Matthew, so maybe Matthew is still alive. Coben, who has won a raft of literary awards, said his inspiration comes from playing with the idea of a perfect life, and the outside forces that could change any aspect of it. The main character is good, and I can see Tom Cruise playing the part, if it ever comes to be adapted for the screen. Ryan, Maureen (April 11, 2018). "TV Review: Harlan Coben's 'Safe' on Netflix".

While David is sure he did not murder his son, the overwhelming evidence against him puts him behind bars indefinitely. Rachel meets up with David. She has found every photo tagged at Six Flags amusement park at the same time the photo of Matthew was taken. They realize that the day the photos taken, there was a Six Flags corporate event for Merton Pharmaceuticals.
