In his mysteries -- many of which star sports agent Myron Bolitar -- Harlan Coben leavens the intrigue with a surprise ingredient: humor. The result: books as fun to read as they are to solve, with distinct and colorful characters the reader is always happy to visit with, again and again.
Harlan Coben is the master of the sports-related mystery. Great for Father's Day, The Final Detail will keep the baseball fan in your household turning pages into extra innings. When a pitcher is killed, sports agent Myron Bolivar loses not only a client but also his partner, Esperanza Diaz, who's charged with the pitcher's murder. Now it's up to Bolivar to prove her innocence -- that is, if she is innocent.
The Edgar-winning author gives his characters memorable personalities. Myron Bolitar stands out.
