Review title: Harlan Coben phones one in
Product review: Terrible book by one of my favorite authors. Read the "Author's Note" at the front of the book and pay heed. He basically says it sucks. I read the "Author's Note" after buying it and thought "what an odd intro, hopefully he is just being hard on himself", but no, it really blows. Why did this get republished? My only thought is Cha-ching. I can understand and excuse learning on the job, but republishing something you know to be amateurish and making it look like a new book is inexcusable.
