Publication Information
#1 New York Times bestseller Harlan Coben delivers his next impossible-to-put-down thriller.
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 had been 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.
"Starred Review. Once again, Coben marries his two greatest strengths - masterfully paced plotting that leads to a climactic string of fireworks and the ability to root all the revelations in deeply felt emotions - in a tale guaranteed to fool even the craftiest readers a lot more than once ." - Kirkus
"Starred Review. Coben is like a skilled magician saving the best, most stunning trick for the very end." - Publishers Weekly
