“The second book in the Myron Bolitar series, "Drop Shot" tops the first book with excellent built-up and a satisfying twist. At this point, author Harlan Coben's writing skills were clearly reaching a point of excellence, though, like the first in the series, "Deal Breaker", some of the dialogue is a little too cheesy for me. However, he also improved in this area, with the beginning of Chapter 42 in a part between Bolitar and girlfriend, Jessica ("I work fast", and her "And yet I never complain" retort) is brief, shows the chemistry between the two, and avoids feeling gratuitous. A great read, and I'm glad I re-read this one.”

Yes | No“A young female tennis star, Valerie Simpson, is wanting to make a comeback and is trying to contact Myron. Myron's current star, Duane Richwood, is on the verge of winning the US Open. Someone murders Valerie in broad daylight at the US Open and Duane becomes the #1 suspect because his name and number are found in Valerie's book. But Duane was playing tennis in front of an audience at the time of the murder. No brainer for Myron, except some things seem out of whack. Myron and Win take on the task of finding the truth.”
