This is Mary Higgins Clark at her very best. I started this book in the afternoon and didn't put it down until I had finished at 12:30 that night. Her characters are real and the story is tense, right up to the very end [although I had guessed the villian before the final pages], but isn't that the fun of a good mystery?....seeing if you have figured it out.

A GUY'S REVIEW:
My sister-in-law lent me a stack of her books. This book was in the pile, and for her sake I read it. It was torture. If this is one of MHC's best, then I'm done reading MHC. I told my wife that it reads like a bad Lifetime movie, so I wasn't surprised when she told me that alot of Lifetime movies are adaptations from MHC novels. Sorry girls, I had to give the guys fair warning. I'll just back away slowly now. ;)

Great suspenseful read. Now I know why they call her the queen of suspense. Loved it will definitely be reading more of her works. In fact I already bought a 7 book lot of her books and cant wait to tear into those.

I guess I'm weird, because I didn't find this book entertaining. All of MHC's stories sound alike. They're all farfetched and dull.

This was a really good book. I liked the mysterious past murders. MHC can often be predictable, but still she spins a good story and doesnt give away too much.

Good, light read for an evening or two at home. MHC is good at creating believable characters and creating "normal" suspense around their background story. Nothing wild and crazy, but cozy and comfortable - but still able to keep you reading on and on. Although not her best, surely still worthwhile for folks who enjoy easy reading and suspense!

I have never before read anything from Mary Higgins Clark. How can this be, you ask, she's such a big name! It's true I tend not to read most of the big bestselling authors, not sure why, but I just don't. Here we have defense attorney Emily, who has just purchased her family's old ancestral home, and where a body is promptly discovered in the back yard. Nice quick pace, lots of plot twists, enjoyed the various POVs. I thought the bit about the media harping on reincarnation was highly unlikely, but I still enjoyed the book as a whole. Won't go out specially looking for more of hers but if there's one sitting around I'd read it.
