Hold Tight

by HarlanCoben (Author)

Synopsis

Tia and Mike Baye never imagined they'd become the type of overprotective parents who spy on their kids. But their sixteen-year-old son Adam has been unusually distant lately, and after the suicide of his classmate Spencer Hill - the latest in a string of issues at school - they can't help but worry. They install a sophisticated spy program on Adam's computer, and within days they are jolted by a message from an unknown correspondent addressed to their son: Just stay quiet and all safe. Meanwhile, browsing through an online memorial for Spencer, Betsy Hill is struck by a photo that appears to have been taken on the night of her son's death and he wasn't alone. She thinks it is Adam Baye standing just outside the camera's range, but when Adam goes missing, it soon becomes clear that something deep and sinister has infected their community...

A regular Sunday Times and New York Times bestseller, he is also a multiple Guardian fastseller. Harlan Coben always receives incredible reviews: 'Harlan Coben is the modern master of the hook-and-twist - luring you in on the first page, only to shock you on the last' Dan Brown. 'A cracking thriller that whizzes along at top speed' Daily Express. 'A pulsing, pacy, devour-at-one-sitting thriller ... Coben grabs you with the opening paragraph and never lets you go' Observer. 'Harlan Coben always has a good tale to tell, and he knows how to present it with elegance, pace and loads of tension' Guardian. 'Cements his reputation as a top-class mystery writer' Independent on Sunday. 'Coben's genius - and his most frustrating trick - is that he makes it all seem so obvious, then kicks your legs away before the end' FHM.
