Our view
“Tell No One” is a fast stand-alone thriller that keeps its twists ahead of the reader and has real sadness under the action. Some readers praise its unpredictability and unrelenting pace, and others find it better written and more affecting than the usual weekend read. It needs no knowledge of Coben’s Myron Bolitar series.

About the book
Tell No One is a 2001 thriller novel by American writer Harlan Coben. This was Coben's third stand-alone novel and first since 1991, his previous seven books having all been part of the Myron Bolitar series. Said Coben, "I came up with a great idea that simply would not work for Myron."
