I had heard of Harlen Coben, or at least seen his books on the shelves of various bookshops anyway, but had never been interested enough to actually buy one- not for any particular reason I don’t think.

For one reason or another, when ordering some other stuff on Amazon, Long Lost managed to slip into my basket and I must say that I’m glad it did.  It’s obviously the latest in a line of books featuring the lead character, the intriguingly named Myron Bolitar, but not having read any of the previous ones wasn’t a huge handicap I didn’t feel.
