Book Review of Daddy's Gone A Hunting

Daddy's Gone A Hunting
reviewed on + 160 more book reviews


I have been reading Mary Higgins Clark since I was in high school (class of '68!) and she rarely fails to delight. Daddy's Gone A Hunting is a suspenseful story of the Connelly family and their legacy as purveyors of fine reproductions of antique furniture. The business is failing, when a fire is set and destroys the complex. Douglas Connelly wants the 20 million dollar insurance payout, however, his daughter Kate and former employee Gus Schmidt are suspected of deliberately setting the fire. Two murders are unearthed, and they may be tied into the family business. A truly surprise ending nicely wraps up this mystery.
