    About this ebook

    'No one delivers a sharper thriller than the superb Colin Harrison' Mail on Sunday

    Her story, his trouble, begins in desire

    Paul Reeves is a successful New York lawyer with a seemingly charmed life. He has an adoring girlfriend, a beautiful apartment on the Upper West Side and a voracious appetite for rare and beautiful maps.

    But when his seductive, all-American neighbour Jennifer Mehraz – wife of the suave but shadowy young businessman Ahmed Mehraz – desperately pleads for his help, Paul is catapulted into Manhattan's dangerous underworld. Behind its glamourous façade, this city is a dark and troubling place where anything can be bought for a high enough price...

    As past and present collide, devastating secrets are unearthed, loyalties put to the test and Paul will be forced to consider what he is willing to sacrifice to possess what – and who – he most desires.

      Thank you to Simon & Schuster Canada and NetGalley for providing me with an e-copy of You Belong to Me by Colin Harrison in exchange for any honest review. Paul Reeves, an immigration lawyer and antique New York maps collector, finds himself caught in the middle of the marriage of two of his neighbors. Though he is not involved, he witnesses what can happen when a wife is reunited with a former lover and how her jealous and wealthy husband copes with the situation. The story line winds around many turns and introduces several characters who get involved in this crumbling marriage, one way or another. Few will be standing at the end and the reader will get hooked into following who will do what to whom. A great read that does not disappoint.
    • 3/5
      An immigration lawyer who collects rare NYC maps; a beautiful blond neighbor cheating on her rich Iranian husband; a pesky, annoying girlfriend; a former Army Ranger from Texas in love with the beautiful blond - how could anything possibly go wrong with any of that? On the gritty streets of New York, it certainly does. Paul Reeves, the hero map collector, seems affable, diffident, cool, calm and collected but very clever, intelligent and resourceful, so much so that it seems he could have had a former life that we learn nothing about in this book. Everything is tied up neatly at the end. Moderately entertaining.
