Book Synopsis

When his child is taken, a father will stop at nothing to get her back in this explosive, white-knuckle thriller from the bestselling author and creator of the hit Netflix drama Fool Me Once.

When the first bullet hit my chest, I thought of my daughter...

Shot twice by an unseen assailant, Dr. Marc Seidman lies in a hospital bed. His wife has been killed. His six-month-old daughter has vanished. But just when his world seems forever shattered, the ransom note arrives: We are watching. If you contact the authorities, you will never see your daughter again. There will be no second chance. With no one to trust, and mired in a deepening quicksand of deception and deadly secrets, Marc clings to one unwavering vow: bring home his daughter, at any cost.



Trade Review
Coben is expert at taking such a situation and following it through in an exciting and moving way. No Second Chance is a consummate and thrilling piece of storytelling * OBSERVER *
Harlan Coben is an American who has been heralded as the successor to John Grisham. His heroes are ordinary guys dropped into horrible situations. He's a much better writer than Grisham; No Second Chance has a terrific opening . . . writers don't really go into Coben's line of work to make us turn the pages slowly; if you can devour it at a sitting, it's a hit * DAILY TELEGRAPH *
Page-turning tension makes this one of the top thrillers of the summer * IRISH TIMES *
[A] superb thriller writer on great form * TIME OUT *
Gripping, high-octane thriller in which a man is driven to his limits in search of his kidnapped daughter * WOMAN & HOME *
Propelled into the front rank of thriller writers with his superb novel Tell No One, Coben's latest book proves that he has the wit and stamina to stay there. This is another tautly plotted thriller, written with heartfelt emotion and dashes of wit * DAILY MAIL *
