____________________________ From the #1 bestselling author and creator of the hit Netflix series The Stranger comes a riveting new thriller, starring the new hero Windsor Horne Lockwood III or Win, as he is known to his (few) friends ... ____________________________ Over twenty years ago, heiress Patricia Lockwood was abducted during a robbery of her family's estate, then locked inside an isolated cabin for months. Patricia escaped, but so did her captors, and the items stolen from her family were never recovered. Until now. On New York's Upper West Side, a recluse is found murdered in his penthouse apartment, alongside two objects of note: a stolen Vermeer painting and a leather suitcase bearing the initials WHL3. For the first time in years, the authorities have a lead not only on Patricia's kidnapping but also on another FBI cold case - with the suitcase and painting both pointing them towards one man. Windsor Horne Lockwood III - or Win as his few friends call him - doesn't know how his suitcase and his family's stolen painting ended up in this dead man's apartment. But he's interested - especially when the FBI tell him that the man who kidnapped his cousin was also behind an act of domestic terrorism, and that he may still be at large. The two cases have baffled the FBI for decades. But Win has three things the FBI does not:: a personal connection to the case, a large fortune, and his own unique brand of justice ...

This was my first Harlan Coben book, and while I enjoyed it, the main character Win is really a nasty guy. It was a quick and fast read. I will definitely read more of his books, though.

I'm heading home tomorrow, so another holiday read. I've only read one myron bolitar bk, which I enjoyed and picked this up, unaware it was a spin off about one of the characters. It was an enjoyable thriller that twisted and turned well with some exciting action scenes. Definitely need to read more by harlan coben.

LeahBergen I want to try those steak-flavoured crisps. 😄 1y

andrew61 @youneverarrived thanks, Northumberland is such a beautiful area that we didn't want to come back. 1y
LitStephanie I am really hoping he writes more about this character. I found him smart and hilariously snobby. 1y

1. Either “Articulate.” because Windsor Horne Lockwood III is all that 😊 or “But perhaps it was only an echo.” The last line from The Giver.

Very well-written crime thriller. I can't wait to read more from Coben, who is more skillful than most in this genre. The main character is a privileged, entitled, old-money a$$hole but somehow likeable as he has no illusions about deserving his status. The idea of super-rich equals celebrity is sometimes over the top ("you probably read about that" "yes THAT so-and-so" and such), but overall very good with lots of funny.

I just started this book and don't know this character's name or gender. They might be a criminal based on the genre. But I like them already! I live near a major March Madness school and just don't get it. It isn't like the players are even local people, but the city goes nuts! Most aren't even alumni!

SamAnne Hah! 2y
LitStephanie @SamAnne oops . . . You watch those games, don't you? 🤣 2y
SamAnne @LitStephanie I only watch during the March Madness, not the conference games. I like routing for the scrappy underdogs, which, uh, is not our home team these days. Only sport I watch…. 2y

This was a super good mystery novel! I actually didn‘t see the end coming for once and it was wrapped up so nicely! I did have to get past how the main character gushed about how rich he is but besides that it was great! I was confused as to why he kept bringing up his friend Myron who had no relevance, then I realized this was a spin-off of the Myron Bolitar series. 😂

This was my April #bookspin @TheAromaofBooks 🎉😁

I really enjoyed this one! And I feel like the narrator is getting better at voicing the female characters. I particularly enjoyed a story told exclusively from the perspective of Windsor Horne Lockwood III. There really isn‘t much I can say other than if you like Win‘s extravagant weirdo of a character in the Myron Bolitar series and haven‘t read this yet, you will probably enjoy this as well.

After you get past the main character lamenting about how rich he is, it‘s a really enjoyable story! If you‘ve liked previous Harlan Coben books, you will like this one! It‘s supposed to be the beginning of a new series I believe and Win has a connection to the Myron Bolitar series by Coben, which I haven‘t read, but was still able to follow what was happening. I was surprised by the reveal at the end! I would read more of this series!

Whoa.

My head is spinning, and a book that I thought was going to leave me feeling confused left me eager to praise it for such a clever ending and twists I never saw coming!

Win needs to find the connection between two seemingly different crimes, and it is certainly a thrilling ride to get there! Highly recommended for fans of mystery and stories with multiple characters.

Win is one fictional character I may have developed a crush on *wink.*

Okay so I am a huge Harlan Coben fan, HUGE. But this didn‘t grab me as much as his Myron Bolitar novels or his other standalones. Maybe it‘s because I hate rich people problems. Idk. Win is definitely better as a character in small doses. So many of his comments had 🙄 Over all it was a decent read but I don‘t know if I‘d read the whole series. Glad I didn‘t buy this one and checked it out of the library. It‘s between a pick and so so for me.

Coben‘s thrillers are reliably fast, fun reads and this book is no exception. Win, a character already well-known to readers of the Myron Bolitar series, is the focus of this one—well actually, a murder, a stolen Vanmeer and a suitcase are the focus and it‘s up to Win to unravel the mystery. He is a way over the top character and thus very entertaining. The story is too. Definitely an enjoyable read.

Hey Littens! Apologies if this seems like an ad since I worked on it, but I thought the Harlan Coben fans might be interested! Tonight's episode is a special "stranger than fiction" story featuring Harlan, he follows along with this real life case.
It isn't about his books or anything. He seems like a cool guy, though, it actually made me want to check out his work.
Anyhow! On tonight!

vivastory You worked on this? That's awesome! 4y
j9brown @vivastory Yeah, I've worked on 2020 for years, just as an editor. It's very fun, except now I'm half convinced that I could get away with murder (But I certainly could not!) (And would never, of course 😈) 4y
vivastory @j9brown 😂Having watched my fair share of Forensic Files & such it does seem like if you avoid making the same 4-5 mistakes that most murderers make you would stand a pretty good chance. 4y

Nobody writes fast-paced, intricately constructed mysteries featuring fascinating characters better than 𝐇𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐛𝐞𝐧. 𝗪𝐢𝐧 is a privileged, arrogant, exasperating, but oddly charming former FBI asset who investigates several crimes that may be connected & implicate his family.⁣ Win is one of 2021's must-read thrillers. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⁣

This did not disappoint!! Another solid thriller with great twists, humor, action and suspense. Having Win as the stand alone antihero was a nice change, although I did miss the banter between Win & Myron. Even if you‘ve never read a Harlan Coben novel before, you‘ll be able to enjoy this read. Book publishes March 21 #NetGalley #ARC @Andrew65 @TrishB @riversong153

AmyG His books are always fun. He lived a few towns over from me in NJ and I would always get a kick when he mentioned local places. (edited) 4y
riversong153 I can‘t wait to read this. It will be interesting to see Win without Myron. 4y

Cinfhen Really @TrishB you haven‘t read any Myron books yet????? Uh oh 😧 I feel a new series might be in your immediate future!!!! 4y
Cinfhen Win & Myron along with Hester and Esperanza are some of the best literary characters in a series @Andrew65 right??!?!!! 4y
TrishB @Cinfhen @Andrew65 I guess I need to start 😁 4y
Andrew65 @Cinfhen Absolutely! Wonderful characters, who couldn‘t love Win and Esperanza. If I‘m ever in trouble I want them on my side. One of the few series that makes me regularly laugh out loud as well. @TrishB A great journey ahead. A series I‘d happily read again. 4y
Andrew65 @riversong153 I bet they get Myron to pay the odd appearance as Harlon likes these crossovers, like with Hester. 4y
riversong153 @Andrew65 You‘re right! I‘m sure he‘d make a few appearances. 4y
