This is my first read of Mary Higgins Clark was not sure how it would go as her writing style is a bit different to what I am used to but by 1/4 way through I was fine.I found the plot very predictable & knew how it was going to end, the characterisation worked well, but I just thought this did not have enough oomph for me, I felt no tension throughout & the pace was the same the whole way through, that's not to say I didn't like it I did I thought it didn't go far enough into theI need to start by saying I have been reading MH Clark's books since I was a teenager way back in the eighties, when computers were the size of small houses, Ronald Reagan was president, electric typewriters were fashionable, and photographs had to be developed to be seen (unless you had a slide projecter or viewfinder...uhh... S.O.S... what the hell is she talking about)? Anyway, libraries were still libraries and books were still books, then, and I read a lot of them in my alligator tee shirts
I have read almost every book this author has written and was excited to come across this fairly new story last week. As always it was a page turner... completely captivating and a very easy read. If you've read enough of her books you can usually pick out the murderer in the first couple of chapters... this time I narrowed it down to two and picked the wrong one (but I was close!)! Very typical MHC - fun to read, interesting plot, not a lot of character development but enough to make you want
There is no denying Ms. Clark's success as an author, but I was disappointed with this book. I read it because I finished my first book on vacation too quickly and I wanted something else to read. I came very close to putting it down early on but I hate doing that, so I pushed through and finished it. I was glad I did finish it but it wasn't easy. The book borrows heavily from "Rebecca" and the author's wanton usage of cliches, especially to close chapters, became annoying and repetitive. If you
Kay Lansing's father once worked for the wealthy Carrington family until he was fired and then commits suicide. Before her father died a girl disappeared and was found dead. The son, Peter Carrington, was a person of interest. Now years later Kay approaches Peter Carrington about the use of the mansion for a fundraiser. A romance follows and they get married. Meanwhile a case is being built against Peter.It was alright. I have enjoyed Mary Higgins Clark in the past but this one didn't grab me
