Title: A well written mystery, with only a few flaws...
Review: Since this was my first Mary Higgins Clark novel, I was expecting that if I liked this one enough, I would request her newest book, You Belong to Me. I did. Now I've heard that her newest novel is definitely not among her best, but I'm willing to try it out anyway.This one only has a few flaws in it. For one thing, sometimes things move a little to fast, so that the reader might get a little confused. Second of all, the last scene of action was WAY to short. She wrote the whole book so that you would just enjoy the beginning murder and the last, 3 page action/suspense scene?? Come on, she could have put more into this book than that. The characters (especially Lacey) are memorable and well created. I can only think of one mystery I like better than this one: Blood Ties, by Sigmund Brouwer.All in all, this was a fine novel. Not to bad, but not to good; yet it was more good than bad. I look forward to reading more from this talented writer.
