DON’T MISS THE NETFLIX SERIES FOOL ME ONCE—NOW AVAILABLE TO STREAM

A widowed veteran gets the shock of her life in this impossible-to-put-down thriller from the bestselling author and creator of the hit Netflix dramas The Stranger and Stay Close.

In the course of eight consecutive #1 New York Times bestsellers, millions of readers have discovered Harlan Coben’s page-turning thrillers, filled with his trademark edge-of-your-seat suspense and gut-wrenching emotion. In Fool Me Once, Coben once again outdoes himself....

Former special ops pilot Maya, home from the war, sees an unthinkable image captured by her nanny cam while she is at work: her two-year-old daughter playing with Maya’s husband, Joe—who was brutally murdered two weeks earlier. The provocative question at the heart of the mystery: Can you believe everything you see with your own eyes, even when you desperately want to? To find the answer, Maya must finally come to terms with deep secrets and deceit in her own past before she can face the unbelievable truth about her husband—and herself.

So I was so surprised finding out that the family did do what Maya said they did and I could not understand the mother psychiatrist be so deceptive. And then the whole whole family or sneaky and deceptive I was so surprised to find out that Maya did kill her husband because he killed her sister, and if she had not removed that firing pin, he would have killed her as well.

I have no idea why I finished this book. Possibly I kept waiting for it to be as good as author’s other books.

Very good read. Never expected the ending. Not what I imagined it would be. That’s the best part……
