They install a sophisticated spy program on Adam's computer, and within days they are jolted by a message from an unknown correspondent addressed to their son: "Just stay quiet and all safe."
Meanwhile, Betsy Hill is struck by a photo that appears to have been taken on the night of her son's death...and he wasn't alone.

Story
When Mattie Winston catches her husband, Dr. David Winston, receiving some very special loving care from RN Karen Owenby, she quits her job and moves out. Mattie's best friend, Izzy, offers her a place to stay and suggests she'd be a natural as deputy coroner. Now, instead of taking patients' pulses, Mattie's weighing their hearts and livers. But Mattie's first homicide call turns out to be for none other than Nurse Karen, and even though she saw her ex in a heated argument with the newly deceased the night before, she refuses to believe David could be a killer.

Good story, bad sound quality
What made the experience of listening to The Woods the most enjoyable?
Harlan Coben and a good story with a many twists and turns. I was casually listening, so didn't really see the end twist coming in this one. Scott Brick's narration is his usual. If you like him (and I do) you will like this one. The glaring negative is the sound quality. Did you guys record this on a 1970 portable cassette tape machine?
Any additional comments?
Sound engineers, you might want to test the quality of your capture early on. Any teen with an iPhone could have made a better quality recording than this. That aside, it is a good tale that is generally believable. Scott Brick does his usual good job.

A page turner right to the end, but not believable
If you could sum up The Woods in three words, what would they be?
intelligentcoyjaded
Who was your favorite character and why?
Hmm. I'd rather tell you that I don't like the way all the females in the story were not only flawed, but either synical, spinsters or lied. The only woman in the story that was worthy of admiration was the dead wife.
What does Scott Brick bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
His narration is incredible. Pregnant pauses, aceents and real emotion as if he were really the characters themselves.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Harlen Coben clearly has been disappointed by women.
Any additional comments?
This book was a page turner and had me capitvated until the end. And then, I found myself let down. I found it not at all believable that the love interest kept the secret that she did. The character was damaged but beloved by her students. I don't believe the ending.

Gripping
It was difficult to stay away from this audiobook. I would stay up late needing to find out just a little bit more...just one more clue. But that's typical with a Coben book. He's a master author of suspense, and he sure doesn't let you down with this one.

One of my favs......
Great book in which to immerse yourself! Like 2 mysteries in one....both satisfying. First time I have read Coben, but not the last.

It was a little slow to start, but this turned out to be a good one! very good suspense!
