I like Harlen Coben’s novels – they are fast paced, ideal reads for a weekend or over a couple of evenings, and The Innocent is no exception. In a roller coaster of twists and turns, the story of Matt Hunter unfolds, and it is a story of the past catching up, coming back to haunt! If you’ve had ups and downs in your life, you’ll be able to relate to Matt! Imagine, a chance incident sees you being robbed of several years of your life as you end up in jail. You’re finally released, and begin to rebuild your life – only for the ride to begin again, in the form of a video clip showing your pregnant wife, wearing a blonde wig, with another man in a hotel room! And meanwhile, a local cop, Loren, is trying to find out who smothered a teacher at the local convent, and why the dead nun had breast implants…
