‘A book to read in one gulp’ TELEGRAPH

‘Elegance, pace and loads of tension’ GUARDIAN

‘One of the most sheerly entertaining and accomplished writers in the genre’ DAILY EXPRESS

Matt Hunter’s life has already been blown apart once. A fight, a friend in trouble, and the dull crack of someone’s skull on the concrete cost him four years in jail, and a small sliver of his soul.

When Matt got out he set about rebuilding his life. He carved himself a job as a lawyer and fell in love with a beautiful woman. The break in the road seemed only to have made him a stronger person.

But now someone is following him, and Matt realises that his new existence is under threat. Suddenly Matt can’t trust anybody – least of all those he loves…

DAILY MIRROR
One of America's top thriller writers. This is his best book yet
GUARDIAN
Harlan Coben always has a good tale to tell, and he knows how to present it with elegance, pace and loads of tension
DAILY MAIL
Dark, twisted and gripping
TELEGRAPH
Harlan Coben has made his intentions clear: he wants to fool his readers. And he makes a good job of doing so in The Innocent . . . The enjoyably intricate plot takes several turns before we are fooled for the last time and the villains and motive are revealed. A book to read in one gulp
DAILY EXPRESS
