Slick, intelligent thriller with a lot of twists
It's been a while since I've a genuinely coherent thriller. The characters are fabulous, two guys, one secretly in love with the other, just attempting to find and understand the disappearance of two boys. There is twist after twist, but while there is zero character development, the plot is enough to keep listening. It's slightly different to the current theme of 'neurotic woman finds killer' story. It is also very witty in places and extremely dark. A thoroughly enjoyable listen.

A suspenseful thriller from American author Harlan Coben, released a few years ago but this is a good Ôstand aloneÕ story that will introduce you to the dark world of gritty crime that he writes so well.
The central character, Paul Copeland, is the County Prosecutor of Essex, New Jersey. Twenty years ago his sister, and three other teenagers, disappeared from a summer camp and now ÔCopeÕ finds himself embroiled in a case that may provide some answers to their disappearance. A great thriller with plenty of interesting characters and plot twists.

Fabulously deceptive, deliciously dark
Park Chan-wook has pulled another delicious thriller out of the bag after his Vengeance Trilogy and Stoker. It is dark, filled with violence and sex, but the cinematography is decadent and the vivid colours spill out of the screen.

The story itself is filled with twists and turns, even tying your stomach in knots watching it. It's a question of who betrays who? Which of the characters are con artists?

I love the fact that there is a strong female presence in this film like Park's other stories. Absolutely gripping.
