I've not read all of the Myron Bolitar series yet, but Fade Away rates as the best I've read to this point (and all are good). A couple of factors help make this particular story stand out.
First, and foremost, since the storyline centers on basketball, it is much more personal for Myron than when other sports are featured. As a reader, I both celebrated and agonized as Myron tackled his life-long dream.
Secondly, while there are the trademark Coben plot twists and turns, they are not overdone in Fade Away. All of the plot twists ultimately add depth to the story and aren't inserted simply to keep the reader off balance. Very well done.
The secondary characters, Win & Esperanza, as always, add a tremendous amount. The 'guest stars' (the team players and administration) are entirely believable as they each attempt to protect their own turf.
