Coben, a true master of suspense, is known for producing nonstop twists and turns, and he delivers another nail-biting story here that’ll leave readers recovering from whiplash upon turning the final page ... his latest offering reverts back to the classic brew of unbearable suspense that he’s so known for producing with his thrillers. If this book doesn’t get your heart racing, you might need to try a new genre ... When it comes to misdirection and catching readers off guard, no one’s better than Harlan Coben, who continues to land unexpected twists and shocking reveals. Fast-paced and helplessly entertaining, Run Away is everything his readers have come to expect and then some, and is sure to stand among the year’s best suspense thrillers.
[Coben] maintains many threads perfectly, ultimately weaving them in unexpected ways ... An absolutely brilliant, taut thriller that begs to be read in one sitting.
Coben, once again, shows a well-constructed, lucky life blown open by fate ... Though marred a little by too much description, which slows the narrative, this remains solid Coben, with clever plotting and dead-on character sketches.
