Back Spin is a thrilling and suspenseful novel by Harlan Coben, part of the Myron Bolitar series. The novel follows Bolitar, a former professional basketball player turned sports agent, as he investigates the death of his best friend's sister.

Bolitar is reluctantly drawn into the case when his best friend, Win Lockwood, begs him to look into the death of his sister, Terry. Terry was a rising star in the world of women's basketball, and her death has been ruled a suicide. However, Win is convinced that Terry was murdered.

Bolitar agrees to help Win, and he soon discovers that Terry's death is more complicated than it seems. Terry was involved in a number of risky activities, including gambling and drug use. She was also having an affair with her coach, a married man.

As Bolitar investigates, he uncovers a web of lies and deceit. He learns that Terry was being blackmailed by someone who knew about her affair. He also learns that Terry was involved in a point-shaving scheme, which is a form of gambling fraud.

Bolitar's investigation puts him in danger, but he is determined to find out the truth. He knows that Terry's death was not a suicide, and he is determined to find the person responsible.

Back Spin is a fast-paced and suspenseful novel that will keep you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. Coben does a great job of creating a complex and believable mystery, and he keeps the reader guessing until the very end.
