Fade Away
This time, Myron is given a chance to return to professional basketball after being sidelined by a heartbreaking injury 10 years ago. No, the owner of the New Jersey Dragons doesn't want Myron to play. He wants him to use his skills as a onetime FBI undercover agent the worst kept secret in the continental United States to find a missing player and former rival. The hunt for the absent player turns up an ugly web of complications that include a dead body, blackmail, a nasty custody suit, out-of-control gambling and thugs intent on revenge. Myron finds himself dragged in deeper than expected as the case stirs unresolved issues from his own past. With the help of his lethally loyal pal Win, he untangles the mess with bravado and not a little personal pain. Coben writes a fast-moving narrative in a style witty enough to keep pace without straining too hard.

Harlan Coben
Few writers can turn the ordinary into the ominous quite like Harlan Coben. His thrillers don’t just keep readers turning pages—they drag them headfirst into a world where secrets refuse to stay buried, and the past is never as distant as it seems. Whether unraveling a decades-old mystery or exposing the dark undercurrents of suburban life, Coben has a knack for making the familiar suddenly feel dangerous.
Born and raised in New Jersey, Coben found early inspiration in the seemingly quiet neighborhoods around him. Behind those manicured lawns and white picket fences, he sensed the potential for chaos—a theme that would become a hallmark of his work. He didn’t set out to be a writer, though. It wasn’t until his senior year at Amherst College, where he majored in political science, that the urge to tell stories took hold. Once it did, there was no turning back.
Myron Bolitar

With each case, he’s not just solving mysteries; he’s navigating the fragile human connections that make every decision count.
