Praise for The Stranger
“Coben describes Adam’s search for the truth behind these
allegations—and the identity of the person who made them—with
masterly skill, springing surprises, raising stakes, seamlessly
integrating other victims of the ‘stranger’ into Adam’s tale. He’s
also a smooth, funny writer.”—New York Times Book Review
“This page-turner is one stranger that readers will want to
meet.”—Associated Press
“Seamless storytelling at a breathtaking pace.”—Houston
Chronicle
“Coben’s latest stand-alone is a great story for people who like to
examine the ephemeral nature of those strings that bind our dreams
to our reality.”—Library Journal
“The Stranger isn’t just a great thriller, it’s a stunningly
effective, probative novel about one man’s search, essentially, for
his own identity...Flat-out great and not to be missed.”—Providence
Journal
“Another suspenseful thriller whose gripping and intricate plot is
completely plausible, and chilling.”—The Huffington Post
“Thoroughly entertaining.”—Publishers Weekly
“Coben can always be relied on to generate thrills from the
simplest premises, but his finest tales maintain a core of logic
throughout the twists. This 100-proof nightmare ranks among his
most potent.”—Kirkus Reviews
“The startling climax reinforces the novel’s theme that the
trappings of the American dream—affluence, fine home, family—don’t
necessarily protect one from violence...[The Stranger] carries his
trademark asset: a plot that pretty much defies readers to guess
the outcome.”—The Columbus Dispatch
