No Second Chance by Harlan Coben (2004)

I stumbled across Harlan Coben a couple of months ago... I travel extensively so I go through a lot of books and I picked up one of his without any real idea of what to expect. I was blown away! Since I do read a lot of books, I am a little skeptical about claims that you won't be able to put down the book... I really have had a hard time putting down his books!

After that first book, I have now read about a half dozen of his books and I have not been disappointed with any of them.

This book, like all of his books, starts off quickly, grabs you within the first few pages and doesn't stop until the final page. In addition to the action, Harlan manages to throw in numerous twists and surprises that keep you from getting bored.

"No Second Chance" starts with the main character getting shot, his wife dying and his daughter kidnapped. Before the book comes to an end, you wind through a dozen twists, surprises and a pretty amazing body count. The action moves fast, but naturally with a tight story line that seems to somehow make the body count reasonable!

If you like action, you will like this book.

Harlan Coben writes books that are addicting, I just want to keep reading, and when I finish one, I look forward to the next. This was one book that kept me guessing until the end, and looking forward to the little free time I had most days to continue reading. I highly recommend it.

The book arrived within the timeframe quoted and in the condition stated online. I would not hesitate to order from this merchant in the future.
