![]() ![]() In Seconds Away, the central mystery focuses on a shooting that involves Mickey’s friend Rachel. The mystery of the first book was centered around the disappearance of Mickey’s girlfriend Ashley. ”Because,” Homicide Investigator Dunleavy said, “right after you finished talking to her, someone shot Rachel Caldwell in the head.” Mickey has little time to ponder the troubling implications of the photograph given to him by the mysterious ‘Bat Lady’ before he gets drawn into yet another mystery, this time involving his friend Rachel. It is highly recommended that Shelter is read first before attempting to read Seconds Away, although Harlan Coben does a fantastic job of bringing the reader up to speed without simply filling the opening chapter full of exposition. ![]() The only problem is, the man in the photograph is also the paramedic who took away Mickey’s father after he died in a car crash. Seconds Away begins moments after Shelter’s cliffhanger ending, with Mickey Bolitar looking at a photo of the Butcher of Lodz, a sadistic Nazi who supposedly died at the end of World War II. One second your world is one thing, the next – snap! – it is completely altered. There are moments in your life that change everything. ![]()
