Some words I looked up:

36> short eyes= adult who sexually abuses children
37> cockwomble= A foolish or obnoxious person. ( )

I am in love with a Myron and Win

This story was so satisfying and life affirming. I am never disappointed in a Harlan Coben title, but sometimes he truly knocks it out of the park.

Now, if only there were more Mickey Bolitar tales to tell...... ( )
