More about the book
At 20, Matt Hunter made a mistake that led to a four-year prison sentence, instilling in him a determination to avoid incarceration at all costs. Now, with his life back on track—holding a good job, a pregnant wife he loves, and a dream home on the horizon—everything seems perfect. However, his world is upended when he receives anonymous photos suggesting his wife is involved with a mysterious black-haired stranger. Before he can investigate, he finds himself on the run, particularly from a childhood friend turned cop and a young detective entangled in an FBI probe linked to a dead nun with unexpected ties to Matt and Olivia Hunter. The plot thickens with elements like a missing stripper, a dead gangster, and an incriminating videotape, all while Matt grapples with his faith in Olivia amid her murky past and uncertain future. Coben intricately weaves a narrative that challenges the notion of justice and innocence, as Matt, a quintessential middle-class New Jersey boy, confronts the moral complexities of his past. This tightly constructed thriller promises to captivate readers and secure its place on the bestseller list.
