Review:

Mary Higgins Clark slowly unveils the troubling family story within the tension of the murder mystery and reminds the reader that behind every tragedy there are human beings just trying to cope with events. Her mastery of the genre remains anchored in her characters, which reflect the hopes and heartaches of ordinary people who find life is sometimes beyond their control. But even as they anguish over what might have been, they eventually will find a resolution --- which is what we all are seeking, isn't it? --- a happy ending. - Ann Bruns
