Win by Harlan Coben

Win, (Windsor Horne Lockwood III), is the billionaire friend of Myron Bolitar, and in this new series, it’s his, and not Myron’s character that takes centre stage.
Win is called to the Beresford apartment block - the scene of a murder, and framing the wall in this exclusive apartment, is a very expensive painting, a Vermeer no less, that once happened to adorn the wall in the Lockwood family home, and was stolen many years earlier. During that robbery, Win’s cousin Patricia was abducted and her father killed. She was kept in an isolated cabin for months - until she managed to escape. There is also a monogrammed suitcase in the apartment belonging to Win’s family. Now, his quest to find out just how the painting and the suitcase ended up in the murder victim’s home, will take him into some life threatening situations, involving not just himself, but some of his family members too.
This is a very complex tale, but engaging nevertheless. Win is extremely vain, arrogant, and outspoken to the point of rudeness, but a fascinating character for all that, and I found him quite amusing, for all his faults. A tremendously entertaining read, and a great start to this new series.
