Win

by Harlan Coben

Book Overview

In this #1 New York Times bestselling thriller from Harlan Coben, a dead man's secrets fall into the hands of a vigilante antihero--drawing him down a dangerous road. Over twenty years ago, the heiress Patricia Lockwood was abducted during a robbery of her family's estate, then locked inside an isolated cabin for months. Patricia escaped, but so did her captors -- and the items stolen from her family were never recovered. Until now. On the Upper West Side, a recluse is found murdered in his penthouse apartment, alongside two objects of note: a stolen Vermeer painting and a leather suitcase bearing the initials WHL3. For the first time in years, the authorities have a lead -- not only on Patricia's kidnapping, but also on another FBI cold case -- with the suitcase and painting both pointing them toward one man. Windsor Horne Lockwood III -- or Win, as his few friends call him -- doesn't know how his suitcase and his family's stolen painting ended up with a dead man. But his interest is piqued, especially when the FBI tells him that the man who kidnapped his cousin was also behind an act of domestic terrorism -- and that the conspirators may still be at large. The two cases have baffled the FBI for decades, but Win has three things the FBI doesn't: a personal connection to the case; an ungodly fortune; and his own unique brand of justice.

Customer Reviews

Great insight into Win

Book was in excellent condition. Hesitant to read since it was Win's POV, but I liked seeing his side of things and getting to see more of his character. Glad I read it!

Win

I was a little worried about one of my favorite characters from previous books. Of course you have a pre-conceived idea about each character. Win was elusive in previous books showing up for Myron when needed. You actually did a good job expanding his "skills". Mentioning Myron so many times made me wonder when he was going to show up to help Win. Clever.

If you like Myron ...

The author retired Myron Bolitar and put previous back-up character Win in the driver's seat. So we end up with less complexity and more hard-boiled action. Is O.K.!
