Missing You – Harlan Coben

Kat Donovan, an NYPD detective, has never fully recovered from two blows that struck her eighteen years earlier: her father, also a police officer, was murdered, and soon afterward her fiancé, Jeff, suddenly broke off their engagement and disappeared from her life. She has never stopped wondering about either event.

Missing You, by Harlan Coben, begins when a friend signs Kat up for an online dating site. Browsing profiles, she is stunned to see Jeff’s photograph. He seems to be using a different name, and when she reaches out to him, the result is not what she expected. Meanwhile, a young man comes to Kat for help, convinced that his mother, who went off with a man she met on a dating site, has gone missing.

As Kat investigates, she uncovers a terrifying scheme in which criminals use online dating to find lonely, vulnerable people and exploit them. At the same time, she reopens the investigation into her father’s death, refusing to accept the official explanation that he was killed by a mob hit man who later confessed. Her search for the truth leads her to unsettling discoveries about the people closest to her.

Coben weaves together multiple storylines with his trademark pacing, plot twists and emotional depth, exploring love, loss, trust and the dangers of the online world.

Missing You is a suspenseful, page-turning thriller for fans of Harlan Coben and mystery fiction. It contains violence and disturbing themes.
