This was my first Mary Higgins Clark book and I am disappointed that I did not find it to be suspensefull at all for someone labeled as the "Queen of Suspense". There were no big plot twists or surprises of the 'keep you guessing until the end of the book' variety. It came across as a very straight forward read. To a point, I have to wonder if my own life experiences, that allowed me to read the book from the same perspective as the person telling the story - first person from the little sister of a murder victim, played a part in that. I can state that her research was accurate and allowed her to write a completely credible story. Everything contained within the covers is accurate and reinforces the validity of the story. I did nearly find me forcing myself to finish the story and hope that if I find myself reading another of her stories, I hope will not be disappointed in the future.
