For sports agent Myron Bolitar, the disappearance of a man he'd once competed against was bringing back memories - of the sport he and Greg Downing had both played and the woman they both loved.  Now, among the stars, the wanna-bes, the gamblers and groupies, Myron is unraveling the strange, violent life of a sports hero gone wrong, and coming face-to-face with a past he can't relive, and a present he may not survive.<br/><br/>In novels that crackle with wit and suspense, Edgar Award winner Harlan Coben has created one of the most fascinating and complex heroes in suspense fiction - Myron Bolitar - a hotheaded, tenderhearted sports agent who grows more and more engaging and unpredictable with each page-turning appearance.]]></description>

    <body><![CDATA[I give this one star for each point Myron Bolitar scored in his comeback.  He must have almost made a free throw too.  This moves slow at times, but is constantly weaving new ideas and leads.  The more of these I read, the more I like the formula and the supporting characters.]]></body>

    <![CDATA[The home was top-notch New Jersey suburban.  The living room was Martha Stewart.  The basement was Legos--and blood.  For sports agent Myron Bolitar, the disappearance of a man he'd once competed against was bringing back memories--of the sport he and Greg Downing had both played and the woman they both loved.  Now, among the stars, the wanna-bes, the gamblers and groupies, Myron is unraveling the strange, violent life of a sports hero gone wrong, and coming face-to-face with a past he can't relive, and a present he may not survive.<p>In novels that crackle with wit and suspense, Edgar Award winner Harlan Coben has created one of the most fascinating and complex heroes in suspense fiction--Myron Bolitar--a hotheaded, tenderhearted sports agent who grows more and more engaging and unpredictable with each page-turning appearance.</p>]]>

    <body><![CDATA[I really like the Myron Bolitar series. I prefer those books to the stand alone thrillers by Coben which tend to be a bit too graphic for my tastes.  <br/><br/>In FADE AWAY the characters are sharp and sarcastic, coming across as very real to me.
