This was a tremendous read, its been sat on my book shelves for ages until I picked it up last week, and then got through it in a couple of days.
The set up, a young married couple are brutually attacked, the wife kidnapped, tortured and killed by a serial killer who is then caught and imprisoned. Eight years later, the husband receives a strange e-mail with a link, when he follows the link it shows him a street scene on web cam, as he watches, his wife steps in front of the camera, speaks to him, then walks away.
Tell No One is a non stop rollercoaster of thrills as the protagonist Dr. Beck is plunged into a whirl of violence and intrigue as he strggles to understand what could have happened to his wife eight years ago. The plot constantly twists and turns as Beck uncovers revelation after revelation, I do like the sort of book where you cannot see the next plot jink coming, and Coben even saves a final twist for the very last page.
A really good thriller, very entertaining, top marks.

Good page-turner. Lots of plot twists, frightening and engaging. In spite of being plunged into the middle of a fairly complicated plot I felt empathy for the characters - not something you always get with this genre.
Picked up at Leeds meet - I have enjoyed a couple a Coben's.
Read this a while ago now. Excellent thriller. Has been turned into a French film I believe. Hope they've made a better job of it than Hidden (Caché) - as that filmed sucked - although it does have maybe the best ever cinematic suicide scene.
