Harlan Coben

Shelter Harlan Coben

Mickey Bolitar s year can t get much worse. After witnessing his father s death and sending his mom to rehab, he s forced to live with his estranged uncle Myron and switch high schools. A new school comes with new friends and new enemies, and lucky for Mickey, it also comes with a great new girlfriend, Ashley. For a while, it seems like Mickey s train wreck of a life is finally improving until Ashley vanishes without a trace. Unwilling to let another person walk out of his life, Mickey follows Ashley s trail into a seedy underworld that reveals that this seemingly sweet, shy girl isn t who she claimed to be. And neither was Mickey s father. Soon, Mickey learns about a conspiracy so shocking that it makes high school drama seem like a luxury and leaves him questioning everything about the life he thought he knew. First introduced to readers in Harlan Coben s latest adult novel, Live Wire, Mickey Bolitar is as quick-witted and clever as his uncle Myron, and eager to go to any length to save the people he cares about."
