Praise for Harlan Coben and Fool Me Once

“Coben is simply one of the all-time greats—pick up any one of his thrillers and you’ll find a riveting, twisty, surprising story with a big, beating heart at its core.”—Gillian Flynn, bestselling author of Gone Girl

“Coben proves his thriller mastery once more.”—Entertainment Weekly

“Harlan Coben, master of the suburban thriller, has written another compelling and twist-filled tale with ‘Fool Me Once.’…The unpredictability of the story will keep readers literally turning the pages to try and figure out what is really going on. Even those savvy enough to figure out some of the ending will not uncover everything, and the whopper of a payoff not only will have jaws dropping, but also demonstrates Coben's skill as a writer.”—Associated Press

“This was one of Coben’s greatest unexpected endings!”—Suspense Magazine

“Harlan Coben is a master of his craft and a wizard with words.... Fool Me Once is him at his best and there is no shame in having him trick us one more time. In fact, most of us will be begging him to fool us again and again and again.”—Jackie K. Cooper, book critic, The Huffington Post
