Tell No One

Tell No One

by HarlanCoben (Author)

Synopsis

Every year, the Doctor David Beck and his young wife, Elizabeth, meet at the same deserted lake to rediscover their love for each other, and inscribe one more year into 'their' tree. But that year was the last. Elizabeth was kidnapped and Beck knocked unconscious. By the time he woke up, his wife had been discovered dead, and horribly mutilated. For eight years he grieves. Then one afternoon, he receives an anonymous e-mail telling him to log on to a certain web-site at a certain time, using a code that only the two of them knew. The screen opens onto a web cam and it is her face he sees. This starts an inexorable chain of events as Beck tries to find out if Elizabeth is truly alive and what really happened that summer night. Soon he's a wanted man, as the FBI try to pin Elizabeth's murder on him, and everyone he turns to seems to end up dead...

Book Overview: 40 000 marketing campaign, including FRONT PAGE advertising in Telegraph, Times, Irish Times, and Guardian. Harlan Coben has won every major prize available in US crime. He was the first author to win the entire trinity of EDGAR, ANTONY and SHAMUS awards. In the UK, he debuted with ONE FALSE MOVE which won a place in WH SMITH's FRESH TALENT line-up. TELL NO ONE is a stunning breakthrough novel. It has both a brilliantly simple premise, and a twisty, powerful narrative. And the power is combined with intelligent writing, pacey plotting and strong male and female characters. Harlan will reach a far larger audience than his already popular crime novels. The novel has already been snapped up by Hollywood for USD1 MILLION. 'Raymond Chandler meets Bridget Jones... A constant and increasing delight... reminds us that vulnerability and strength come in all sizes' Chicago Tribune
Prizes: Shortlisted for WH Smith Book Prize 2002 and WH Smith Thumping Good Read Award 2002.
