This must have been the second Mary Higgins Clark's book I've read, as I believe I've read another one translated to Portuguese.

This was my first love affair with an author. Let's just say I've read every Mary Higgins Clark book published prior to 1998 and leave it at that. Listing them would have been time consuming. Besides, I can hardly distinguish one from the other anymore.

recommends it for: Everyone
My good friend from college, Delsi Wilde, introduced me to Mary Higgins-Clark. This was the first book I read, without "having" to read a book for school. I fell in love with Mary Higgins-Clark her mystery and hint of a love story in each book!

recommends it for: Anyone that hasn't read very many of her books
I have read most of her books and have enjoyed all of them that I have read. While she twists and turns to keep you from figuring out who did it, most of her books are very similar though, in that you feel like you've read them all.

I thought this was a great book. Good twist in it at the end, I never expected it. I like Mary Higgins Clark books, so I would probably rate all of them 5 star. HAHA

This was the 1st Mary Higgins Clark book I read. So of course I loved it! But if you are looking for a quick murder mystery read, she does it well!

This is one of my favorite MHC books. I was SO surprised at the end. I was really into this book. Very good without too much of the "creepy" factor!

A little predictable. I had the ending figured out within the first 100 pages. Still a good book though.

Anything by this woman is a fantastic read. She was a way with words and keeps you hanging and guessing.
