It is fascinating to think of Wilde as a boy living alone in the woods with no memory of what happened to him and how the ancestry DNA match seems to start a chain of stressful and shocking events. I can see how this storyline would keep anyone who likes thrillers and mysteries reading well into the night!

Reality TV does a great deal of disruption in people's lives, and even damage at times. As for finding people through your DNA, it was weird to find out that it is not all good.

When I first got 'The Match', I thought I was just starting on the latest Harlan Coben book. To learn that it was about Wilde was delightful. It answers a lot of questions the reader has at the end of the first book.
