Search - All Around the Town

I enjoyed this book by Mary Higgins Clark....a nice way to spend an afternoon or evening, grab a cup of coffee and this book and you are set.

This book has two stories going at once. Its a sad read. Good, but sad. The very end (I'm talking the last two pages) was predictable. I'll say it is a good read, but not one of her best. Just too sad.

Not her best, but if you like Mary, you will like this one

Makes ya wanna hug your kids. And it makes you want to hug them often. Read the book, because it's a good book; hug your kids whether you read it or not.

The lack of great detail about Laurie's sexual abuse is an unexpected blessing - everyone knows, and no one really needs to read the details. Alluding to it was enough to give the reader the idea without specifics.

Abducted and abused by a pair of Bible-thumping ex-hippies, four year old Laurie Kenyon coped the best way she could - she let someone else do it for her. They were her closest friends, literally. After two years, Laurie was released and brought home to a family who loved her. Her sister, Sarah, thought she was different when she came home and swore she'd look after her forever. Her parents, just happy to have their baby back, didn't seek answers to what had happened to Laurie over those years.

Fifteen years later, Laurie's parents died in an accident and her behavior changed. The people who loved her thought it was because of the loss of her parents, but her closest friends knew that it was because she had heard that voice, rising above the others, at the church. They had heard it, too. And they were back, to protect her again.

How close can a friend really be? How about living in your head, sharing your body, blocking your memories? Laurie's got MPD (aka DID) and that's the good news. The bad news? She's accused of murdering one of her professors AND she's being stalked by her former abductors. Just as one answer becomes clear, another problem seems to appear, leaving everyone around her - and inside her - doing a constant dance to get all the right answers before it's too late.

A wonderful read, only took me two days and than only because I had to go to work. Did not want to put it down

Bizarre, but fun

A great MHC mystery dealing with kidnapping, molestation, evil televangelists, and multiple personality disorder.
