I found out later that the phone rang as she walked by my desk and she forgot to pick it back up. This was the first MHC book that I have read and I wasn't sure what to expect. I know she is a top tier suspense writer and there were a lot of ups and downs that went on as I read and there were plenty of things along the lines of dead bodies and frantic suspense. I also liked that there were several different possible answers to whom the "bad guy" might be, but beware, if you read a lot of suspense novels you'll probably figure this one out rather quickly. There was a little too much romance type stuff going on in it to really suit me and the main character was one of those that if it were a movie you'd be screaming at her and calling her an idiot. I also thought the book could have ended about 100 pages sooner and no valuable information would have been lost. All in all, it was worth reading and my wife swears that this is one of MHC's best books yet. | |

Sometimes, MHC has a few too many characters in some of her books, but this one was on a lighter vein and an easy read. Much mystery, a little romance, and overall, I would rate it between good and excellent. A must have book for any MHC fan. | |

| 2 out of 2 people found the following review helpful. I purchased the book because I like this author. I thought that this was supposed to be judging the book and not the seller, but I see 2 reviews on the seller..come on people..do what we are asked. I liked the book, it kept me interested to the end...and there were more than one that could have been the culprit. I have not read "Two Little Girls in Blue" so will have to look for that one. If you like mysteries that are clean and not full of sex and vulgar language, then you will like this book...I did. | |

But this book jumps to events and doesn't give the reader the ability to "get connected" to the main character or others. | |

| 1 out of 1 people found the following review helpful. I bought it because I have all of Mary Higgins Clark's books and have never been disappointed in any of her novels. The suspense begins with the first page and holds onto you until the end. The characters are clearly drawn and believable. For the first time, I had a good idea who the culprit was before it was revealed. Only at the reveal was I sure. I liked the epilogue -- one year later. One question that was unanswered even in the epilogue was "what happened to the step-mother?" I wanted to know that she was dealt with for her part in the crimes. | |
