Additional Drop Shot (Myron Bolitar) Information

Valerie Simpson is a young female tennis star with a troubled past who's now on the verge of a comeback and wants Myron as her agent. Myron, who's also got the hottest young male tennis star, Duane Richwood, primed to take his first grand slam tournament, couldn't be happier. That is, until Valerie is murdered in broad daylight at the U.S. Open and Myron's number one client becomes the number one suspect.

Clearing Duane's name should be easy enough. Duane was playing in a match at the time of Valerie's death. But why is his phone number in Valerie's black book when he claims only to have known her in passing? Why was she calling him from a phone booth on the street? The police stop caring once they pin the murder on a man known for having stalked Valerie and seen talking to her moments before the murder. But Myron isn't satisfied. It seems too clean for him.

Myron pries a bit and finds himself prying open the past where six years before, Valerie's fiancee, the son of a senator, was brutally murdered by a juvenile delinquent and a straight-A student was subsequently gunned down on the street in retaliation, his death squandered in bureaucratic files. And everyone from the Senator to the mob want Myron to stop digging.

The truth beneath the truth is not only dangerous, it's deadly. And Myron may be the next victim.

In novels that crackle with wit and suspense, Edgar Award winner Harlan Coben has created one of the most fascinating and complex heroes in suspense fiction—Myron Bolitar—a hotheaded, tenderhearted sports agent who grows more and more engaging and unpredictable with each page-turning appearance.

What Customers Say About Drop Shot (Myron Bolitar):

This one is not as good as the first but I will continue to read the series, a very enjoyable, easy read. The second in the Myron Bolitar series. He is a sports agent that will remind you of Spenser, sharp witty and sharp tongued, not a detective but you would never know it. Hey its fun. HIGH RECOMMENDED

I enjoy his writing style and sense of humor. Light reading good for relaxation,

I enjoyed this book very much. I will buy more books written by Harlan Coben

I have read four of the books in the Myron Bolitar series so it was funny when I got to where Myron's dear friend was going to get raped and probably killed. Valerie was a top tennis star that burned out six years ago when she was only eighteen.A gunshot sounded and Myron and his slightly psycho pal, Win Lockwood, pushed through the crowd and found the girl lying facedown.

Coben, second in the Myron Bolitar series and all have been more than three stars. This is my sixth book by Mr.

It was his wrestler-turned office assistant, Esperanza, calling to say that Valerie Simpson had called for the third time. Myron the protagonist is a man of much experience - a former basketball star, federal agent, attorney, turned sports agent.

His latest client, Duane Richwood, was on the verge of winning his first Grand Slam match when Myron's cell phone rang. He recognized that it was Valerie even before he turned her over.This story did not have a lot of suspense but I didn't want to put it down.

I stopped, smiled and said Win will somehow show up and save her.Author al-Qaeda Strikes Again

There is sex, violence and lots of flippant dialogue. Harlan Coben certainly likes to churn out his Myron Bolitar mysteries. Yes, there are plot twists in the end. Thankfully 'Drop Shot' is among the more sane and enjoyable entries. In it we have our sport agent cum private investigator trying to sort out seemingly interrelated murders connected to his star tennis player, all taking place during the US Open. But compared to other works of Harlan Coben I found the ending to 'Drop Shot' to at least be rational, although hardly believable.Bottom line: a fast-paced, funny thriller. Recommended.
