Darkest Fear / No Second Chance - Harlan Coben

Darkest Fear

Life isn’t going well for Myron Bolitar. His business is struggling, and his father has recently suffered a heart attack when, out of the blue, Myron’s college sweetheart, Emily, appears. Her thirteen-year-old son Jeremy is gravely ill and can only be saved by a bone-marrow transplant from a donor who has vanished without trace. Then Emily reveals even more shocking news: Jeremy is Myron’s son, conceived the night before Emily’s wedding to another man. Staggered by the revelation, Myron plunges into a search for the missing donor – and gets caught up in a brutal kidnapping and a cat-and-mouse game between an ambitious reporter and the FBI.

No Second Chance

When the first bullet hit my chest, I thought of my daughter … Marc Seidman wakes up in ICU to find his wife has been murdered and his baby daughter, Tara, has vanished. Then something arrives to give Marc new hope: a ransom note. We are watching. If you contact the authorities you will never see your daughter again. There will be no second chance.

The note is chilling, but Marc sees only one thing: the chance to save his daughter. And, haunted by deception and deadly secrets – about his wife, about an old love, and about his own past – he vows to bring Tara home … at any cost.
