highly recommended

For Dr. David Beck, the loss was shattering. And every day for the past eight years, he has relived the horror of what happened. The gleaming lake. The pale moonlight. The piercing screams. The night his wife was taken. The last night he saw her alive.

Everyone tells him it?s time to move on, to forget the past once and for all. But for David Beck, there can be no closure. A message has appeared on his computer, a phrase only he and his dead wife know. Suddenly Beck is taunted with the impossible?that somewhere, somehow, Elizabeth is alive.

Beck has been warned to tell no one. And he doesn?t. Instead, he runs from the people he trusts the most, plunging headlong into a search for the shadowy figure whose messages hold out a desperate hope.

But already Beck is being hunted down. He?s headed straight into the heart of a dark and deadly secret?and someone intends to stop him before he gets there.

LOVED LOVED LOVED

I took the day off and pulled this book off my shelf. Bought it YEARS ago, but never got around to reading it. I went to the UCLA writers weekend and heard Harlan speak in a writer's conversation and vowed to take time to read all the books I have bought of his that I never got around to read -and boy this was a good one!
I'm not going to go into what I loved because there is so many reviews.... but I just had to leave a review and give FIVE stars! I'm on to the newest one in his collection! But yes I definitely recommend TELL NO ONE!

I could not put this down

LOVED it and am instantly hooked on Harlan Coben, can't wait to read more by him.

Greatest of its genre

I have read this novel over and over, and it never fails to disappoint. Over the years I've lent it out at least thirty times and I have yet to find anyone who doesn't become a fan. Harlan Coben owes me money for the number of people who have bought every book he's ever written because of me lending them a copy. The quality of this book came as a complete surprise after the first six or seven books he wrote. Myron Bolitar seemed like the creation of a guy who had his lunch money stolen every day in the cafeteria. He had no bad qualities and was this super guy who dated supermodels. It was completely canned. Tell No One was the start of his assault on the genre. I count down the days until his next novel is published. Only about 320 to go...

Pretty Good Thriller

Dr. David Beck's wife was murdered by a serial killer, and he was beaten and left for dead, on the shores of Lake Charmaine, a place the husband and wife visit, every year, on the anniversary of when they first met.

Eight years later, and Beck is still trying to come to terms with the loss of his wife. He receives a mysterious email, which turns his world upside down once again, as it seems to strongly suggest that his wife is not dead after all.

I found this book an enjoyable read, as Beck discovers one clue, and then another, in the bid to find out what exactly happened to his wife, eight years earlier, on that fateful night. The twists come thick and fast towards the ending, which, I thought could have possible been a bit better. Overall, though, a pretty good story.

Almost too-fast paced

I just saw the movie and the title was bugging me because I couldn't remember where I saw it and then the movie began and I knew I had read the book (just couldn't remember it was Harlan Coben). My head hurt from the plot twists.

I just read the book a few months and several books ago and remember racing through it. However, I raced through it so fast i couldn't remember how faithful the movie was to the book. Now I have to reread it again. After decades of my first reading of the very complicated Bleak House, I could still remember the story and ending but I could not do that with this book a few months later.

If you read it, take your time with it or you'll forget it as fast as you read it. I came away not particularly wanting to go on to other Coben books.
