Deal Breaker

Deal Breaker by Harlan Coben, 339 pages


Myron Bolitar is a sports agent with a complicated back story. It is explored as book goes along but also leaves room for character development further in the series. Myron was a star basketball player whose career was ended by injury before he could make his NBA debut. He is also a lawyer who worked for the FBI in some capacity. Finally, he is a smartass and the story is told with wit.

His biggest client is a rookie NFL quarterback. Just as he is about to sign his contract things get complicated. There are signs that his girlfriend who is missing and presumed dead may still be alive. Bolitar is determined to find her if she is alive. 

I listened to this as an audiobook. I thought the narrator, Jonathan Marosz, did an excellent job. I thought his deadpan conveyed the humor well and was serious when needed.
