The novel Win by Harlan Coben dates back to more than twenty years ago when heiress Patricia Lockwood was abducted during a robbery of her family's estate and locked inside an isolated cabin for months. Patricia escaped, but so did her captors, and the items stolen from her family were never recovered. But for the first time in years, the authorities have a lead not only on Patricia's kidnapping but also on another FBI cold case, both pointing them toward the same man – Windsor Horne Lockwood III or Win, as his few friends call him.
"I gobbled [Win] in literally a couple of days . . . It's fantastic," says television personality and celebrity cook Rachael Ray.
Coben’s novel appeared on Amazon Charts for the top 20 most sold books of the week in Fiction on March 21. Here are some other books on the list:
- The Four Winds by Kristin Hannah
- The Midnight Library by Matt Haig
- Later by Stephen King
- Life After Death by Sister Souljah
- Wild Sign by Patricia Briggs
