The Stranger

Vulnerability. Harlan Coben presents three elements in his novel, The Stranger, which will satisfy many readers. His plot grabbed my attention quickly, and the momentum continued to the end, including a handful of twists that were delightful. His characters, especially protagonist Adam Price, face situations that are believable, and their behavior always seems realistic to how any of us might act. Finally, Coben’s exploration of the vulnerability present in all relationships came across as reflective, thoughtful and insightful. Sometimes all it takes to create doubt is the whisper of a question or a small statement that can unravel the binds that unite us with others.
