The Match (Harlan Coben)

In The Match, Harlan Coben brings back the main characters from The Boy From the Woods. Wilde was found in the woods in New Jersey, where he was found living a feral existence after having been abandoned. Now an adult and a former soldier, he is a security expert who still lives mostly in the woods, off the grid. What brings him into action this time is a DNA match he finds while trying to find out about his birth parents.

As he follows this match, he uncovers a web of relationships, lies and crimes that bring together the worlds of social media, reality TV, secret societies, internet security and the truth about his past.

I am a great fan of Harlan Coben. I like his stories, his characters and his writing. Although this plot was quite complex and at times slightly far-fetched, I really enjoyed this book and it kept me alert until the very last paragraph. 
There are still quite a few open questions and I am not sure Wilde is going to stop here. I wonder if he is going to do anything about “the vile man”. Or should I rather say, I hope he will!
