Mickey Bolitar comes to live with his Uncle Myron (one of Coben’s series main characters, a sports agent and private eye when necessary) following the seclusion of Mickey’s mother in drug rehab; even worse, after his father died in a car accident. Mickey was there. He witnessed it. Except. Except the legendarily creepy, maybe lethal Bat Lady appears when Mickey’s looking at her delapidated house, and she claims his father is still alive.
Mickey, who’s just started a new school with the type of attention no one wants, assembles a couple unorthodox friends who help him find his way as he tries to get more information from Bat Lady; also as he tries to find his new girlfriend who suddenly stopped coming to school and seems to have disappeared herself.
Like Coben’s adult thrillers, this one is a page turner that will keep you guessing until the end. Check that. I tried turning pages even past the end. And I mean it in the best possible way. Stay tuned for the sequel.

Thanks, as always, to Barrie Summy and her awesome book club for prodding me to think about what I read.
