Live Wire by Harlan Coben


Jun 1, 2011

Myron Bolitar is back.  His fiancé is in Angola, his parents have retired to Florida, and he now owns his childhood home.  Life is going well.  Enter Suzze T. – former tennis star, now married to Lex the rock star who is Myron’s client.  Suzze is 8 months pregnant and distressed about a Facebook posting that claims Lex is not the father of her child.  Myron tries to help and gets a lot more than he bargained for.  While talking with Lex in a nightclub he glimpses his long-lost sister-in-law.  Myron tries in vain to see her because he’s eager to make things right with his younger brother who he has not seen in 15 years. Soon a murder occurs that ties both stories together.  Myron and Win must track down a killer and a drug dealer, while Myron’s father lies near death following a heart attack.  Coben fans will not be disappointed in this latest installment.  It has all the adventure and wit the author is known for, but in a slightly darker story.
