Riassunto

A convicted hitman suddenly confesses to a twenty-year-old murder - the slaying of a District Attorney's sister. Why he chose this moment to reveal his secret, he refuses to say...

A businessman tries to go on the run from his family home when an old photograph turns up in a new roll of film. A photograph of him as a young man. But on leaving his house, he is immediately snatched by a vicious, trained killer and bundled into the back of a waiting car.

These things are linked, but by what, or whom, no one knows. Only that the past is coming back to haunt the present and people are getting hurt...

Recensione:

'Harlan Coben writes puzzle books. I like puzzles and I like being fooled. Coben does that extremely well, probably better than anyone else around at the moment. Just One Look.. is a puzzle book par excellence. I loved it.' (Mark Timlin THE INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY)

'Coben's power lies not only in narrative and pithy dialogue... his characters are properly fleshed out and credible, making for an emotional, as well as scary, rollercoaster of a read.' (THE DAILY MAIL)

'In the hands of Harlan Coben, you are kept guessing - and intrigued - until the last line. Just when you think you understand everything, Coben introduces a surprising twist. His previous books have been massive bestsellers, and if you read this one you will understand why.' (Matthew Lewin THE GUARDIAN)
