  • Never heard of Harlen Coben before, but :

    Stay Close. 7/10. Quite enjoyable. Good assassin characters. Nesbits pinch face mildly distracting, but overlookable.

    Safe 6/10. Not as good. Dexters English accent constantly off-putting.

    The stranger up next, after a break.

  • For some reason I found it really irksome when he put his name in the title for "harlen coben's:safe" on all the netflix stuff. the only other people I can think of who does that are Tom Clancy and Dan Brown and they're both bellends.

  • Great author. Some of his books have been made in to TV series in foreign languages. Think french and Spanish.?

    You are right about Dexter ;)

  • Safe pipped Stay Close for me, but wife is on your side. James Nesbitt very distracting, yet again playing that guy from Cold Feet. Assassins OK, but could have done without the ridiculous dancing.

    Also at roughly the same level, I thought Rules of the Game [iPlayer] was a good 6/10, even though it got hammered in a review here a few days ago. Not completely satisfying in how it depicted it and the eventual outcomes, but tackled inequality in the workplace & coercive control.
