The Innocent by Harlan Coben
Matt Hunter expected his life to be successful but routine. That plan changed forever the night he tried to break up a bar fight and another boy died. Matt was sent to prison and his life changed from his early hopes and dreams.
Now Matt has been out for a while and things are looking up. He has a job as a paralegal, a step down from his plan to be a lawyer but one for which he is grateful. His brother arranged it at his law firm. Most importantly, Matt has Olivia. She was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen and he could hardly believe it when she fell in love with him and agreed to marriage. Now Olivia is expecting and they are closing on a house in the suburbs.
But Matt's life has taught him one thing. That is the fact that the best laid plans can go astray in a moment. Matt's next moment occurs when he gets a strange image and video on his camera from Olivia. He is faced with the realization that his marriage may be based on secrets and lies. Can he find his way through a maze of untruth and find reality before his life explodes again?
Harlan Coben cannot write a bad mystery. The reader emphasizes with Matt and wishes him the best. As the plot unfolds, the tension mounts and it is hard to believe that things will ever have a happy ending. This book is recommended for mystery readers.
