From Publishers Weekly

Wisecracking sports agent Myron Bolitar returns with style in his third mystery (after Deal Breaker and Dropshot). 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.

Product Description

The home was top-notch New Jersey suburban. The living room was Martha Stewart. The basement was Legos—and blood. For sports agent Myron Bolitar, the disappearance of a man he'd once competed against was bringing back memories—of the sport he and Greg Downing had both played and the woman they both loved. Now, among the stars, the wanna-bes, the gamblers and groupies, Myron is unraveling the strange, violent life of a sports hero gone wrong, and coming face-to-face with a past he can't relive, and a present he may not survive.

In novels that crackle with wit and suspense, Edgar Award winner Harlan Coben has created one of the most fascinating and complex heroes in suspense fiction—Myron Bolitar—a hotheaded, tenderhearted sports agent who grows more and more engaging and unpredictable with each page-turning appearance. --Ce texte provient de la Mass Market Paperback édition.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Fast paced witty and intriguing, Juil 15 2004
Par David A. Riley (Orange, CA USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Fade Away (Mass Market Paperback)
Marvin Bolitar current sports agent, ex FBI agent and ex basketball would be superstar (until injury robbed him of his big chance)is once again drawn into a murder mystery. Posing as a new member of the New Jersey Dragons Bolitar is asked to try find the team's missing superstar.

As the book unfolds Marvin must face the demons of his old injury and the career that never was, mix it up with red brigade style terrorists and find out the truth about the absent star. Ably assisted by his psychotic sidekick Win the end result is never in any real doubt.

The plot is interesting in a non taxing murder mystery way and holds it's own with that genre. The difference from the pack is the pace at which the story moves and the wit of the dialogue.

I have become a big fan of the Marvin Bolitar series of books by Mr Corbin and find the mix of murder and wit intoxicating.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Brilliant... his best in the Myron Bolitar series, Mai 13 2004
This review is from: Fade Away (Mass Market Paperback)
Wow... that sums up this novel. I've read 3 other Myron books and 3 of his stand alones, and "Fade Away" is as good as my previous favorite of Coben, "Gone For Good" (a stand-alone). Fade Away definitely deserved the Edgar Award.
It was also the wittiest of all of Coben's books that I've read. I literally laughed out loud. The fact that Coben followed this masterpiece with such an average novel "Backspin" is beyond me.

This review is from: Fade Away (Mass Market Paperback)
Being a fan of this writer for quite sometime needless to say I have enjoyed all of the 'COBEN' books-- that being said, I'd like to add that quite possibly, FADE AWAY might very well be my favorite story however. Loved the whitty dialogue! You should give it a try!
