      Will Klein tiene su héroe: su hermano mayor Ken. Una noche de calor agobiante aparece en el sótano de la casa de los Klein una joven, antiguo amor de Will, asesinada y violada. El principal sospechoso es Ken. Ante la abrumadora evidencia en contra suya, Ken desaparece. Pasan los años y su desesperada familia, que no ha vuelto a saber nada de él, le da por muerto. Una década después de la desaparición, Will, que siempre creyó en la inocencia de su hermano, descubre que éste vive, en un momento en que se encuentra abrumado por un fuerte desengaño. Acosado entre ambos dramas, Will se ve mezclado en un inquietante misterio. Está convencido de que Ken está tratando de ponerse en contacto con él y de la existencia de un terrible secreto por el que alguien está decidido a matar porque no se desvele. Por siempre jamás es una auténtica novela de misterio y una apasionante historia de amor; el amor de hermanos, el amor de amantes, el amor de una familia. Un relato de suspense que además de emocionar, conmueve.

      Haley McWaid es la hija adolescente de la que cualquier padre se sentiría orgulloso: una chica responsable, una estudiante aplicada y buena deportista. Por eso, cuando una mañana su madre descubre con sorpresa que no ha dormido en casa, la primera reacción es de extrañeza y la segunda de pánico. El paso del tiempo provoca que la familia se tema lo peor. Casos como el de Haley llaman la atención de la periodista Wendy Tynes, que trabaja en un programa de televisión centrado en localizar por internet a pedófilos, engañarlos y atraparlos con las manos en la masa. El próximo objetivo de Wendy es Dan Mercer, un trabajador social que ayuda a adolescentes con problemas. La rápida emisión del programa que acusa a Dan de pedófilo arruina su vida, a pesar de que él proclama desde un principio su inocencia. Pero tal vez en esta ocasión Wendy se haya precipitado a la hora de actuar, porque los indicios que apuntan a la culpabilidad de Dan son realmente débiles.

      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.
