For readers of Harlan Coben and Laura Dave, a gripping modern-day noir thriller featuring a hotshot lawyer unexpectedly drawn into a web of violence and intrigue by the ex-wife he hasn't spoken to since their bitter divorce, written by the former president of Court TV.From the day he first met her, Leslie Dunlop had excelled at deception, but Henry Gladstone, a lawyer at a white shoe Manhattan firm, couldn’t say no. Their white-hot affair became a marriage filled with secrets and lies that collapsed as spectacularly as it began. Cut to today: Leslie, who Henry hasn’t heard from since their divorce was finalized, bursts into his office and announces that if he doesn’t hand over a quarter-million dollars, they’ll both be killed. Henry dismisses her story as a stupid attempt to steal his money and—despite his still-smoldering desire for her—tells her to get lost. But when he comes home to find his apartment ransacked followed by a phone call from a man with a Russian accent, he begins to think this time Leslie may be telling the truth. And now that he desperately needs to find her, she’s disappeared again. In a harrowing journey through the glittering heights and shadowy corners of New York City, where the legal world meets the dark underside of the city, Henry assembles a team that includes his best friend Aiden, a private investigator named Gabriella, and Aiden’s ex Emma to track down a missing engagement ring, stay one step ahead of the Russian mob, and uncover the secrets of Leslie’s past. As the screws turn tighter and tighter, Henry must learn who he can trust to uncover the truth…before it’s too late. In What She’s Hiding, Art Bell masterfully weaves a noirish tale of suspense and emotional turbulence as a dangerous woman draws Henry ever further into a high-stakes game that neither one of them may survive.
