This is the second book of the Mickey Bolitar. It picks up a couple of days after the book [bc:Shelter 13595638 Shelter (Mickey Bolitar, #1) Harlan Coben https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1335917910s/13595638.jpg 14729522][a:Harlan Coben 24689 Harlan Coben https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1361316023p2/24689.jpg]. The main characters are there Mickey's uncle Myron, Mickey's friends Ema, Spoon and Rachel. Mickey is still looking for answers about his father's death but a shooting happens and one of his friend is the victim. Does it have to do with Mickey's family or is it something else? Also there's a movie superstar who's in town and has a connection to Mickey's family.I really enjoyed the book. Loved the characters, Mickey who has his problems with his mom in rehab and his anger towards his uncle about what happened in the past was well written. The relationship between him and Ema was my favorite part even though the've known each other a few weeks, they have this bond that we've had at some point in our lives.The action was good, not too violent since i't a YA book.I give this book a 4/5
