The deeper Grace digs, the more questions she has. What she will soon find out is that she isn't the only one who's interested in the photo. Some very dangerous people want that photo, too. Among them is Eric Wu, a sadistic assassin, who has a great interest in the old photo and will stop at nothing to keep the secrets it holds buried. He's only concerned about his own survival. Kill or be Killed. But he thinks all is under control until he receives a call that will change everything.

Overall, an enjoyable and puzzling read. 3.5 stars. I'll definitely need to read more of the Coben books on my shelves. I'm not a big fan of James Patterson, for example. I read his books because they're easy reads and fast moving. I now view Coben in that same light--and nothing more. Will I read more Coben novels? Yes, I probably will...if I have nothing else to read and cause I prefer to read that watch TV. It's sad that just a year ago he was one of my favorite authors and now, after reading 8 of his books, he's been reduced to nothing more than a time killer. Like prior French adaptations, the series shifts the action to France. It stars Virginie Ledoyen as the lead, renamed Eva Beaufils, and Thierry Neuvic as her husband. Forget about solving all these crimes; the signal triumph here is (spoiler) the heroine’s survival. A suspenseful, professional-grade north country procedural whose heroine, a deft mix of compassion and attitude, would be welcome to return and tie up the gaping loose end Box leaves. The unrelenting cold makes this the perfect beach read.

Above are six projects announced which leaves another eight books to be adapted. With the exclusion of the Myron Bolitar novels, here’s what ones are left to be adapted:

I first discovered Harlan Coben about 18 months ago. I read one of books, "Caught,", I believe, and loved it. I read a second book, loved it. Mr. Coben jumped into my Top 5 favorite authors. Another novel by Coben cemented his spot. I read a fourth, a fifth, and then it dawned on me. The reason I like his books is because...well, they're all the same. The loved one who died "mysteriously" or was killed 15 or 20 years ago now may not be dead after all. The eight-part series will follow Maya Stern, who is trying to come to terms with the brutal murder of her husband. I love a good book with a clever ending, a book with unexpected twists and turns. And Coben provides plenty. However, they have to be believable. They have to make sense. To have a big twist toward the end simply for the sake of having a twist is ridiculous. It's Pam Ewing seeing Bobby in the shower all over again: "Oh, Bobby, I had a dream you were killed."This one was announced at the beginning of the Netflix pact but we’re unsure where it is in development. The novel at the time wasn’t due to release until a year later and since then, we’ve not heard in what form the Netflix project will be.
