This is my least favorite of MHC's books. It starts off dark, right off the bat. There is no real happiness in it. Not even in the end. You just want to reach into the book and throttle the heroine for not being smarter. I really didn't care for t.

I would suggest not starting this book unless you have time to completely read it. I read it in one sitting and was upset every time I had to set it down.

Good till the last page!!!!
This is another great book by Mary Higgins Clark. It will have you on pins and needles, especially at the end.
Anything by Mary Higgins Clark is worth reading!
Heavy on the hints about an abusive relationship, but still the outcome wasn't quite what I expected. (And she could have taken more time with the ending / wrapup. It was rather abrupt.) A fast easy read, very descriptive.
Good from the start!
This is another good read from Mary Higgins Clark.
i stayed up very late to finish this book!
another good page-turner
I love Higgins Clark. This is a great read. Kept me on the edge of my seat trying to figure out the mystery. Fun and easy. Great beach or weekend read.
Good read.
Another great read from MH Clark. Don't miss this one!
I couldn't put this book down. It was like watching a horror/mystery movie. I couldn't wait to uncover the mystery. I kept thinking the whole way through, I would have left if I was the main character, Jenny.
A very good book, was hard for me to put it down.
I love anything by Mary Higgins Clark. While the story is a little predictable I enjoyed it anyway.
A CRY IN THE NIGHT is a story about a divorced mother of two, Jenny MacPartland, who meets a man she thinks is the answer to her dreams. This artist seems like he's everything a woman could ever want, and the strangest part to Jenny is that he's in love with her! It seems too good to be true, and with a mystery of this caliber, it definitely is! Her life becomes of whirlwind of events -- they marry within a month of meeting, move to a Minnesota farm (the quiet is something Jenny's not used to and she becomes lonely and scared especially at night). All of this begins to wear on her and she begins to fear that she's losing her mind. Slowly Jenny learns of her new husband's past, which is more terrifying than she could even imagine. These secrets can lead to the end of her marriage, but worse, it puts not only her life in danger, but also the lives of her two children.
A CRY IN THE NIGHT has a great plot and could be summed up as a mother's worse nightmare come true. This book showcases why Mary Higgins Clark is one of America's best mystery writers of all time. This suspenseful tale will have you on the edge of your seat until the very end. Lots of twists and turns that will keep you guessing about what will happen next makes this one of my favorites.

"Gripping...A story to be devoured at a single sitting." --Daily News
This book has been made into a movie, starring Perry King and Mary Higgins Clark's daughter. The book is full of mayhem and suspense. It was a great book, that was a great movie.
