Had I seen Coben's warning, I would not have bought this book. It reads like the work of a graduate student in a novel-writing course who's not even one of the top students in the class. One could write a book on why this book is lousy, but that would be tiresome. Just be warned. I wish I had my ten bucks back to spend on one of Coben's newer works. 133 people found this helpful 5. 0 out of 5 stars I stayed up all night.... 14 August 2019 - This is Coben's first book and even he admits that it's not up to the stasndards he would set for himself later. We listened to it as an audio book and enjoyed it, but thought it not as good as other books of his. HOWEVER we reached a point where I couldn't stand to wait to finish the audio book, so ordered the Kindle and sat up reading literally all night. The twists and turns were dizzying. If you're trying to decide if you want to read Coben's books, maybe read one or two others first (especially the Myron Bolitar books) before reading this so you know what a wonderful author he is.

Most helpful customer reviews on 3. 9 out of 5 stars 472 reviews 1. 0 out of 5 stars It was like Ground Hog Day the movie 28 July 2017 - Published on Verified Purchase Omg, I couldn't wait for it to end! It was like Ground Hog Day the movie! Every page written was the same as the previous page! And just the characters, "stunningly gorgeous", "beautiful, full breasts" super model, pro-basketball player who is drop dead gorgeous! Give me a break! The only reason I kept ready was to see if it would get better, it didn't! Don't waste your time. And I liked Harlan Coben's Myron Bolitar series, but maybe I've progressed to enjoy better writing because this book was terrible! 8 people found this helpful There should have been a warning label on this one 13 July 2012 - I am a big Coben fan and think he's about the most enjoyable thriller writer out there. I recently spotted Play Dead on the list of Kindle titles available. It slyly lists the publication date as 2010, so I thought, "Wow, how did I miss this one? "

It doesn't mention that this is the date the Kindle version was published, but that the book itself is over 20 years old. Nor does it show the apology Coben wrote at the beginning of the newly published version. In that apology he basically tells you to make a better choice and that the book is a piece of crap. Which it is. No, instead, you just pay your ten bucks (which is more than the book originally sold for in 1989) and start reading the book, thinking you've bought a recent Coben title. It doesn't take more than a page to realize how poorly and amateurishly written this book is. I'm amazed, frankly, that after Coben wrote a book this bad he decided to stay in the novel writing game. I'm glad he did. He's a terrific writer now and I love his books. But this one should have been left on some publisher's rejection pile. And Amazon/Kindle certainly should NOT be selling it to unsuspecting customers as if it is a legit Coben title. Please, Kindle folks, SHOW Coben's own disclaimer to any readers who might be tempted to buy this book and let them decide.

2 people found this helpful Terrible book! 15 June 2017 - Did Harlan Coben really write this awful book! It was like a really bad romance novel. What happened to the true mystery writer? Did he have a stroke or does he have dementia? Then the book is dragged on for 500 pages when it could have been a 100 page short story without all the drivel about Laura being the most beautiful woman in the world and all the other bodice-ripping drama. I will not be reading any more of his books. Disappointed!!! Doesn't deserve any stars! 3. 0 out of 5 stars Definitely an early effort 23 November 2016 - While this book contains signs of what was to come from Mr. Coben, it falls far short of the standards he has now established. It contains an excessive amount of melodrama and the solution to the mystery was easy to see coming. 14 people found this helpful
