Win

Win

by Harlan Coben (Author)

From a #1 New York Times bestselling author comes this thrilling story that shows what happens when a dead man's secrets fall into the hands of vigilante antihero - drawing him down a dangerous road.

Over twenty years ago, the heiress Patricia Lockwood was abducted during a robbery of her family's estate, then locked inside an isolated cabin for months. Patricia escaped, but so did her captors - and the items stolen from her family were never recovered.

Until now. On the Upper West Side, a recluse is found murdered in his penthouse apartment, alongside two objects of note: a stolen Vermeer painting and a leather suitcase bearing the initials WHL3. For the first time in years, the authorities have a lead - not only on Patricia's kidnapping, but also on another FBI cold case - with the suitcase and painting both pointing them toward one man.

Windsor Horne Lockwood III - or Win, as his few friends call him - doesn't know how his suitcase and his family's stolen painting ended up with a dead man. But his interest is piqued, especially when the FBI tells him that the man who kidnapped his cousin was also behind an act of domestic terrorism - and that the conspirators may still be at large. The two cases have baffled the FBI for decades, but Win has three things the FBI doesn't: a personal connection to the case; an ungodly fortune; and his own unique brand of justice. 

In the gripping novel "Win" by Harlan Coben, readers are taken on a heart-pounding journey filled with suspense, deception, and unexpected twists. The story revolves around a group of friends whose lives become entangled in a dangerous game with deadly consequences.

The protagonist, Windsor Horne Lockwood III, also known as Win, is a successful venture capitalist with a seemingly perfect life. However, his world is turned upside down when he receives a mysterious text message containing a link to a video of him engaging in a compromising act. The anonymous sender demands that Win play a series of twisted games or face the consequences.

As Win reluctantly participates in the games, he discovers that his friends and family are also being targeted. Desperate to protect himself and his loved ones, Win must uncover the identity of the mastermind behind the scheme before it's too late.

With each passing game, the stakes get higher, and Win finds himself caught in a web of intrigue and deceit. He must use his intelligence and resourcefulness to outsmart his opponents and stay one step ahead. As he delves deeper into the mystery, Win uncovers secrets from his past that he never imagined, blurring the lines between friend and foe.

"Win" is a skillfully crafted thriller that keeps readers on the edge of their seats from beginning to end. Coben's masterful storytelling and intricate plot leave readers guessing until the very last page. This gripping novel explores the themes of loyalty, betrayal, and the lengths people will go to protect their loved ones.
