Summary
In the gripping new novel from the Queen of Suspense, a woman is haunted by two grisly murders separated by more than a century, yet somehow inextricably linked...

Following a nasty divorce and the trauma of being stalked, criminal defense attorney Emily Graham leaves Albany to work in Manhattan. Craving roots, she buys her ancestral home, a Victorian house in the seaside resort town of Spring Lake, New Jersey. Her family sold the house in 1892, after one of Emily's forebears, Madeline Shapley, then a young girl, disappeared.

As the house is renovated and a pool dug, a skeleton is found and identified as Martha Lawrence, a young Spring Lake woman who vanished several years ago. Within her hand is the finger bone of another woman, with a ring—a Shapley family heirloom—still on it. Determined to find the connection between the two murders, Emily becomes a threat to a seductive killer...who chooses her as the next victim.

This was my first M.H-Clark and will likely be my last. Good plot, but the dialog was so lame. I kept thinking "how is it this writer is a best seller?" And an Edgar winner? Pass.

I was enthralled in this book. I couldn't wait until the next set of disk arrived. Very interesting mystery. I really liked it.

I cannot tell you how disappointed I was in this book. I usually love Mary Higgins Clark but was left wondering what happened to that 'edge of your seat' and 'can't wait to see what happens next' writing that I'm so used to. In this book it was easy to see what would happen next and I guessed everything before it did. Not very exciting. I loved the idea of Emily delving into a hundred year old murder but it just didn't keep me interested.

This book has a very slow start. It was interesting but not up to speed with Mary Higgins Clark's previous books. The final scene seemed way too contrived and somewhat predictable.
