Stay Close

Product Information

I can't bring myself to give only one star to a book I actually finished, but as I said, the plot is the one thing it has going for it and I wanted to know the ending. But right at the very end a puzzle still very much remained as to who had actually killed young clubber Carlton - the disappearance that started the whole investigation into the murky past in the first place. WATCH: HELLO!'s guest editor Martine McCutcheon chats to Richard Armitage about Stay Close Who are the Barbie and Ken killers in Stay Close? Loved the character of Ray Levigne, but did not feel much for Megan. Megan's husband Dave was quite bland, and I think the detective character, Broome could have done with some extra flesh (as in oomph). As always though, he's awesome at witty one liners and I love this guy's writing!

However, Stay Close was left on a massive cliffhanger - with Megan discovering right at the end that husband Dave had unwittingly killed Carlton by pushing him into the lake. Here we take a look at some of the places you can expect to spot in the 8-part series, which is now available to watch on Netflix.

Summary and reviews of Stay Close by Harlan Coben - BookBrowse

The Performer: Joyner is best known for her work in EastEnders, but she’s also appeared in shows like North & South and Ordinary Lies. The Performer: Jumbo is a TV vet, having appeared in programs like Getting On, The Beast Must Die, The Good Wife and The Good Fight. In a nutshell, this is an enthralling yet entertaining crime thriller that will better be enjoyed by general readers instead of the dedicated fans of the crime fiction genre. But the big twist came at the end, when it was discovered that nightclub boss Lorraine (Sarah Parish) was actually the one responsible for Stewart's death - and indeed for the death of all the men who had been at the club. I feel like the author can make anything interesting, can make even a lactose intolerant get addicted to milkshakes without any regrets.

Stay Close by Harlan Coben | Goodreads

Quite a generic tale of lies, deceit and a missing person or two. Megan has fled from a dangerous scenario and we witness the nearly 20 year finale to the unfolding of the sordid tale. Viewers discover that suburban mum Megan (Cush Jumbo) has a secret in her past life as a lapdancer at the nightclub - and that she was in an abusive relationship with Green who mysteriously disappeared 17 years ago. Mr C at his good, but not best. Still enjoyable though. There were some funny one liners which I did not note down as this was an audio read. This still is not the best format for me, very easily distracted. I found it was not as exciting as many of his others, the ending waned and I was losing interest. It has been the Netflix hit series that has had the entire world gripped - but the dramatic ending of Stay Close has left some viewers puzzled. Stay Close was based on best-selling author Harlan Coben's single novel. So it doesn't seem likely that there will be a follow-up season two on this one.Three people are given the opportunity to revisit the past and maybe right old wrongs. But they are not the only ones taking an interest in the new disappearance. And those others who are trying to find answers have no scruples or qualms about their methods.
