Produktbeschreibungen
Amazon.co.uk
Brenda Slaughter, the star player of the Women's Professional Basketball Association, is getting threatening phone calls. Norm Zuckerman, owner of the league, convinces sports agent Myron Bolitar to protect Brenda by promising to deliver her as Myron's next big client. Brenda, who claims she doesn't need protection, enlists Myron to find her missing father--the assumed source of the phone calls and Myron's childhood mentor. It looks like a simple family dispute--overprotective father goes off the deep end when daughter decides to go her own way--until Horace Slaughter shows up dead and the police name Brenda as the primary suspect. What unfolds is a 20-year-old scandal, a series of disturbing family secrets, and an unexpected, if not entirely believable, ending. One False Move leads the reader through the dirty underbelly of the sports world. It has a little bit of everything: all-star athletes, dirty cops, corrupt politicians, and hired killers. It's a whirlwind of a story that Coben pulls off seamlessly with quirky but realistic characters and pages full of great one-liners. One False Move is a compelling thriller that no mystery fan should miss. --Mara Friedman

As readers who have enjoyed his appearances in original paperbacks already know, Harlan Coben's former professional basketball star Myron Bolitar is not your everyday testosterone-enriched jock. Myron is a mild-mannered guy who drinks chocolate soda and until very recently lived at home with his parents in suburban New Jersey. In his hardcover debut, we find Myron sharing a New York apartment with his longtime lady friend, writer Jessica Culver, and still running MB SportsReps, where he ostensibly manages the careers of other athletes, but really spends most of his time playing private eye. The arrival in Myron's life of rising pro basketball star Brenda Slaughter seriously tests his commitment to Jessica, who is in Hollywood working on a movie. It seems that Brenda's father Horace--Myron's old coach--has disappeared, and Brenda is receiving death threats that might involve a gangster family's plans for a new female professional basketball league. Or the threats might have something to do with Brenda's mother's connection to a wealthy New Jersey political family. Myron and his banker friend Win, a preppy with a penchant for violence, are more than enough to double-team the bad guys. Previous Myron Bolitar games in paperback include Backspin, Deal Breaker, Drop Shot, and Fade Away.

This was my first helping of Harlan Coben, but it definitely won't be my last. If you like Crais and Lehane, you should definitely give Coben a try. Myron Bolitair is a great character, a tough, wisecraking guy on the outside, but vulnerable and sensitive at heart. The rest of the characters are interesting as well. The plot is fast paced, with lots of twists, and a susprising ending. Good descriptions of the setting, and many interesting observations as well. I definitely look forward to reading the rest of the series. This really is a book that will grab you, so make sure you have a few hours free before you start it.

This is the first Myron Bolitar I have read. It was an excellent read. Mystery lovers will be thrilled. The story was tight and well written. The character development was fantastic. I loved the humor and the relationships the characters all have with each other. I've since read all of the Myron Bolitar books and loved all of them.

One False Move is another highly entertaining, witty, mystery from Harlan Coben that -- as usual -- keeps you guessing right to the very end. His main character, Myron Bolitar, and his other characters, particularly Win, are fun to follow as they move from adventure to adventure from one book to the next. To all those non-sports fans, don't be scared away by the fact that Bolitar is a sports agent. The sports aspects only provide the background to how Bolitar gets involved in his adventures. Coben's next book is due out soon and I can't wait!

A pleasant read
This was my first exposure to Mr. Coben's Myron Bolitar. I found that I liked the character, and the story stood up well on it's own, despite being another in a series. Lesen Sie weiter...

Well written & extremely funny.
A recent discovery for a fan of mysteries, especially with a smart-ass hero. I loved listening to the sarcastic chatter in Myron Bolitar's head as he dealt with the action in this... Lesen Sie weiter...

A fantastic novel, and I know nothing about US sports!!
I had not read a Harlan Coben novel before, and when I was told it included a lot of American Basketball references, I was sceptical. I was, however, pleasantly surprised. Lesen Sie weiter...

Loved the pace, witty writing and the characters.
One False Move is equally as witty and exciting as all 4 previous MB adventures. Myron grows up a little more in this one, Win and Esperanza become more fully realized as... Lesen Sie weiter...
