Our view
“Fade Away” is a solid third case for Harlan Coben’s sports agent turned amateur sleuth Myron Bolitar, this time chasing a disappearance. Some readers find the middle stretch flat and the closing chapters, where every clue falls into place, the best part of the book. It reads best after the two earlier Bolitar novels and should appeal to fans of mysteries set around professional sport.
