#1 bestselling author Harlan Coben asks that provocative and terrifying question with his fifteenth thriller. How much do parents really want to know about their kids?
#1 bestselling author Harlan Coben asks that provocative and terrifying question with his fifteenth thriller.
#1 bestselling author Harlan Coben has become an unstoppable force in suspense fiction. His most recent novel, The Woods, spent more time on the New York Times bestseller list than his previous books and sales reached his highest levels to date. His latest page-turner, which is about just how far parents will go to protect their kids, is destined for the top of every bestseller list.
Tia and Mike Baye never imagined they?d become the type of overprotective parents who spy on their kids. But their sixteen-year-old son Adam has been unusually distant lately, and after the suicide of his classmate Spencer Hill?the latest in a string of issues at school?they can?t help but worry. They install a sophisticated spy program on Adam?s computer, and within days are jolted by a message from an unknown correspondent addressed to their son: ?Just stay quiet and all safe.?
Meanwhile, browsing through an online memorial for Spencer put together by his classmates, Betsy Hill is struck by a photo that appears to have been taken on the night of her son?s death . . . and he wasn?t alone. She thinks it is Adam Baye standing just outside the camera?s range; but when Adam goes missing, it soon becomes clear that something deep and sinister has infected their community. For Tia and Mike Baye, the question they must answer is this: When it comes to your kids, is it possible to know too much?

Terror of parenting today - |
Hold Tight Review |
|
Prominent surgeon Mike Baye and his wife Tia are in mental torment about their son, sixteen year old Adam who has undergone a complete change of character in the last six months. Adam's best friend committed suicide for no apparent reason and Adam has turned into a sullen, unresponsive boy who refuses to talk to his parents or obey any house rules. Mike and Tia are at their wit's end, trying to be understanding parents and hoping that this is just a passing phase. While uncertain as to whether or not to invade his privacy and show a lack of trust by installing a spy system,they decide that they've been forced into this situation and are willing to do anything to protect Adam from himself and anything crooked. It's a gripping book which will resonate with many parents of teenagers today. |

Hold Tight Review |

This book was good. However, I didn't enjoy it as much as Coben's other books. The drama was engaging but dark and depressing. |

HOLD TIGHT - toooo many important characters - |
Hold Tight Review |
|
I guess I'm alone in my feeling about this book. Although I really appreciate the "prose", it was waaaay tooooo complicated and intersecting for me. The characters, there were many of them, weren't developed enough to be able to remember who was who. If I had been able to sit down and read it from cover to cover in one or two sessions, it might have read easier. As it was I would read each evening and then I found myself having to page backwards to figure out who I was reading about. |

Hold Tight Review |
|
Harlan Cornem has found the perfect formula for a successful suspense novel. Unlike some suspense writers, Corben can take seemingly unrelated storylines and make them come together in a perfect package that the reader is willing to accept. So while some of the things in the story may be a bit "predictable", I always enjoy the journey of discovery into the final reveal.
Briefly I will tell you about Hold Tight. Mike and Tia Baye are beginning to feel like most parents, that something is wrong with their teenage son, whose latest phase is of a moody goth. Initially they are willing to allow Adam some freedom, but decide to start monitoring his every move following the suicide of his very good friend, Spencer. Meanwhile, Nash, along with his handy assistant Petra, are killing women and disposing of them in very peculiar ways for unknown reasons. A school girl has moved from being part of the "in crowd" to being a recluse because of some humiliation from an insensitive teacher. The same teacher is being blackmailed about something and is doing everything he can to protect his secret. The humiliated child now has only one friend who stands beside her (Adam's sister, Jill) and who she confides in. Mike, a doctor, has a new patient (his neighbor) who needs an organ transplant, but can't find one in his immediate family hinting to a lot of secrets that the mother really doesn't want to get out. And finally there are mentions of "farm partieis", prescription drug thefts and suicides. What is nice about this book was how Corben begins to take these seemingly unrelated events/storylines and link them together in a nice, quick read. I enjoyed Hold Tight and would definitely recommend it to people who enjoy suspense. Although there are some things that you will wonder about, in all you will be willing to let it go for the final outcome. |
