Win

Product Information

Love every book I have read so far! The Myron Bolitar series is my favorite. I instantly fell in love with the characters. Would make a great tv series. I had no idea what to read after that but I just finished reading Caught in two days. Couldn’t put it down. Reply I only have one book left in the Bolitar series. I so look forward to this series and I hate that it must have ended. Please continue to write about Bolitar and his book mates. Each one is so interesting and fun fun fun. Reply That aside and the slightly subdued end to the plot, I loved Win and everything about him. And I cannot wait for more. *Makes note to get hold off the Myron Bolitar series* Harlan Coben is an American bestselling thriller author born to a Jewish family in Newark, New Jersey, on January 4, 1962. Harlan attended Amherst College and majored in political science. After graduating, he worked for his father in a company in the travel industry. Harlan is married to Anne Armstrong-Coben, a pediatrician, and has four children. Harlan has over 50 million books printed to his name and published in 40 languages worldwide. Greg is considered crazy by the rest of the team and his disappearance is casually dismissed as such at first. However, Greg has gone missing for far too long and with playoffs approaching, Clip is ill at ease about it. Convinced that Greg’s team mates know something about his disappearance and would easily share it with an insider, Clip brings in Myron to play for the Dragons, earn the team’s trust and find Greg. Clip and Myron share a history.

She finished studying law in New York University by taking in night classes and is made a partner in MB SportsReps in One False Move, the fifth book in the series.Coben is currently developing 14 projects, including Run Away, with Netflix in the US and internationally. The two cases have baffled the FBI for decades. But Win has three things the FBI does not:: a personal connection to the case, a large fortune, and his own unique brand of justice ... A tasty, if not always tasteful, tale of supernatural mayhem that fans of King and Crichton alike will enjoy. These books are amazing! He has my husband and I hooked at the second paragraph! We tell many younger readers (than us) about these books and often hand down to many so they can get hooked as well! Please write more!! Reply

It also means the motivation for the murder is murky and the suspects many. It could be family members of those killed fifty years earlier seeking revenge; it could could linked to the theft of the paintings; OR related to the murder of Patricia’s father and her kidnapping.

The novel Deal Breaker brings the ex-lovers face-to-face after not seeing each other for four years. It is clear in the book's storyline that he still harbors feelings for Jessica, to the disgust of Esperanza, who dislikes Jessica for the way she treats Myron. They start seeing each other but break up again in the novel One False Move, when Myron almost cheats on her with Brenda Slaughter. It is also revealed in the novel that Culver had cheated on Myron with Doug. Jessica marries Stone Norman in Promise Me. On New York's Upper West Side, a recluse is found murdered in his penthouse apartment, alongside two objects of note: a stolen Vermeer painting and a leather suitcase bearing the initials WHL3. For the first time in years, the authorities have a lead not only on Patricia's kidnapping but also on another FBI cold case - with the suitcase and painting both pointing them towards one man. The Myron Bolitar series of thrillers are written by Harlan Coben with a series protagonist of the same name. In this story, told by Win in first-person perspective, readers learn more about what motivates the character than ever before. Smith, Kevin Burton (August 2000).

If Win is as addictively irreverent as he is here in the Myron Bolitar series, I’m going to have to go and read them all. He’s astoundingly haughty and so, so wonderful.The series protagonist is a 31-year-old formerly renowned basketball player and is the owner of MB SportsReps (or simply MB Reps in later books), an agency representing sports stars and celebrities. Bolitar is 6 feet, 4 inches tall and considered handsome by many people. Introduced in the first book of the series, Deal Breaker, Win is a 31-year-old bachelor working closely with Myron Bolitar, his best friend since college. Win is also very close to Esperanza Diaz, Myron's assistant (and later business partner) whom he meets through Myron. The Bolitar series of novels have garnered four major crime fiction awards for Coben: an Edgar (for Fade Away), a Shamus ( Drop Shot), an Anthony ( Deal Breaker), and the RBA Prize for Crime Writing ( Live Wire).

She was formerly a professional wrestler known by her stage name Little Pocahontas and was part of FLOW (Fabulous Ladies of Wrestling) organization. She was usually teamed with fellow female wrestler “Big Chief Mama” in her matches, aka Big Cyndi. (Big Cyndi becomes a receptionist for MB SportsReps.)

Win exhibits many traits that would classify him as a high-functioning psychopath and narcissist. He shows no aversion to violence and seems to enjoy inflicting pain and killing those he believes deserve it. Myron makes up one of only a handful of people Win seems to have any care for in the world. He has a very high sex drive and almost no emotional attachments to other humans, especially women. It is frequently observed his relationships with women rarely last more than one night. However, in two successive Bolitar novels ( Long Lost and Live Wire) he spends most of his free time with the same Asian woman, named Mee, who doubles as a flight attendant on his private jet. He displays a high level of narcissism and can overreact to slights or threats. To find answers to the above questions, Myron and Win have to piece together facts related to Horace Slaughter’s murder, Arthur Bradford’s race for governor and what exactly transpired in the association involving the Ache brothers, a rival basket ball league and rival candidate. In the end, Myron and Win (best friend) get to the bottom of the murder mystery. However, Myron has to resolve his own love life as well, having fallen for Brenda despite living together with Jessica. Earlier, Clip had Myron in his plans to play for the Boston Celtic in the first round. This never materialized as Myron broke his knee in an exhibition game, meaning that he would never play again. Myron is stunned because he has a chance to play in the NBA, although for different reasons altogether. He accepts the case. On the other hand, Win and assistant Esperanza are not excited about what’s at stake here. The two know how an injury destroyed Myron’s career in basket ball and broke his heart. And that excites me because I really loved this book. I adored Win. I adored Coben’s conversational style of writing. It felt like he was writing in second person, as if Win was telling ‘us’ his story. It was engaging and funny and Win, as a narrator, is unabashedly arrogant and elitist. If the plot had been a little less coincidental / contrived this might have been a five star read for me, but instead Mr Coben will have to settle for 4.5 stars. Win and Myron are both fans of Batman, often referring to their transport as the " Batmobile". Win drives a racing green 1998 Jaguar XJR, often breaking traffic laws by driving it well over double the speed limit.
