Seconds Away by Harlan CobenMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Seconds Away is the novel that follows on from Shelter, Coben’s previous Mickey Bolitar book. It did not disappoint with the usual intriguing and engrossing chapters throughout the novel, and had the occasional snippets about the characters from the first one to keep readers up to speed. I was pleased to see Spoon and Ema return in this book as they helped to provide an element of humour to counterbalance some of the more sinister moments. There is the expected suspense and danger you need in a thriller and a great ending. All in all I enjoyed this book just as much as Shelter and can thoroughly recommend it to adults, younger and older!
There was a lot in this Mickey Bolitar book about the relationship between him and his uncle Myron. There was also some more about the back story, the fate of his parents and so on. That was also done well and it helped me gain an overall context to their family. Something I think all readers will welcome.
