From the back of the book:

When a woman who everyone, incluinding the police, believes is dead makes a phone call yo a young sportsman about to hit the big time, it seems that more than just his career is on the line.

Myron Bolitar investigates, and is plunged into a baffling mystery of sex and blackmail. Trying to unravel the truth about a family's tragedy, a woman's secret and a man's lies, Myron soon realises that image and talent might make you rich, but he truth can get you killed...

This is the first book by Harlan Coben I have read and I will definitely be reading more. Myron Bolitar is definitely not your average crime/thriller hero as he still lives with his parents! He's also a sports agent, a lawyer, seems to have been a Fed at some point in his career, so he knows how to handle himself - his associates include his friend Win, who seems to be a bit of a pyschopath, and Esperanza, who used to wrestle as Little Pocahontas - which gives you some idea of the mix of terror, humour, violence and suspense, I really didn't see the ending coming, that Coben weaves in this novel.
