  <default_description>Whether you discovered him with his &lt;I&gt;New York Times&lt;/I&gt; bestselling stand-alone novels or you fell in love with the award-winning books that preceded them - or you've never read him at all - anyone who loves a thriller will love international literary superstar Harlan Coben's latest, &lt;I&gt;Promise Me&lt;/I&gt;. 
It has been six years since entertainment agent Myron Bolitar last played superhero. In six years he hasn't thrown a punch. He hasn't held, much less fired, a gun. He hasn't threatened or been threatened. He hasn't called his friend Win, still the scariest man he knows, to back him up or get him out of trouble. In the past six years, none of his clients have been murdered - a real positive for his business.

But all that is about to change. Because of the simple urge to protect two neighborhood high-school girls from the all-too-dangerous and all-too-common mistake of getting in a car with a drunk driver, Myron has them make him a promise: If they are ever in a bind but are afraid to call their parents, they should call him rather than get in a car with someone who's been drinking. Several nights later, the call comes at 2:00 am, and true to his word, Myron picks up one of the girls in midtown Manhattan and drives her to a quiet cul-de-sac in New Jersey where she says her friend lives. 

The next day, the girl's parents discover that their daughter is missing. And that Myron was the last person to see her. Now, in a desperate attempt to fulfill a well-intentioned promise gone nightmarishly wrong, Myron must become a hero again to save a young girl's life. </default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[This is a good one in the mystery/thriller genre.  It moves right along and carries you with it.  The characters are a bit one-dimensional but hey, why complicate things?   The hero is heroic, his pyscho sidekick is truly a nut case, his girlfriend is shallow, the bad guys are bad, the cops are toug...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/75166422">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I've enjoyed the Myron Bolitar books.  The wit and the social commentary alone are worth the read, but the mystery never disappoints, at least for me.<br/><br/>Anyway, I really enjoyed this book because Myron, usally a kind of Peter Pan like character, comes of age.  I use the term age loosely, he...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/57898670">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I may have to abandon my mystery club.  This month's pick was a small waste of time.  The violence was gratuituous...no ifs, ands or buts.  The plot was cliche and contrived.  If I read another thriller about a kidnapped or killed pregnant teenage girl, I might just have to get killed, kidnapped or ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/54056003">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Stumbling on a new author that you just love has got to be one of the best feeling! LOL.  Found this book at costco and couldnt put it down!  Its a mystery but no blood and guts and no bad words (Grandma, I totally thought of you, you will love this one).  I really like the way the main character in...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/49294357">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Soyons clair : ce roman ne vaut pas ce que j’ai déjà pu lire de Coben. Au niveau de l’histoire, je m’attendais à beaucoup plus tordu, complexe et haletant. Le suspens est inégal, l’explication nous vient par bribe mais trop clairement et trop vite à mon goût. Le style par contre est un...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/17863248">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This was the second Harlan Coben book I found at the library. Even though it is #8 in the Myron Bolitar series, I didn't feel that I had missed anything by not first reading the previous 7 (although,  I am on the search for them). The characters are all well developed, and the story line was grippin...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/66587806">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This is the first Coben novel that I have read.  Apparently Myron Bolitar is an established and loved Coben character.  I did like this book and will seek out more in the series, and more Harlan Coben novels.  I read the book on a flight back to Seattle from Chicago.  It was just about the right len...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/63602304">more...</a>]]></body>
