This is not Ms. Clark's best work. No suspense. No twist...Read it for the journey and not the destination.

When a girl,s sister is murdered and justice is served, years later, when his parole is about to be granted, she will attempt to keep him behind bars. Is he innnocent? That is one the the great twists so typical of all of M.H. Clark,s books. Love her and all of her books.

This is a tightly woven, emotionally potent tale of suspense and revenge. Clark's new heroine is Atlanta investigative journalist Ellie Cavanaugh, who was seven when her sister, Andrea, 15, was beaten to death by 20-year-old Rob Westerfield, scion of the wealthiest family in a small Westchester town. Now Westerfield is up for parole, so Ellie, now 30, returns home to speak out against him. When Westerfield is released, Ellie begins to write a book aimed at re-proving his guilt. Digging for evidence, she uncovers clues that Westerfield may have committed another murder as a youth, but that digging also enrages the Westerfields and other town members who think the man was railroaded. Before long, Ellie's life is in danger, as someone breaks into the house she's staying in, then later sets fire to it, nearly killing her, and as Westerfield himself begins to shadow her moves. What makes this novel work isn't only the considerable tension Clark teases from Ellie's precarious position, but the thoughtful backgrounding to the action. Ellie is cast as a lonely woman, without a lover and estranged from her father and half-brother: will she accept one or the other into her guarded life?; and she carries a heavy load of guilt for her sister's death, wondering at times if she is blinded by her thirst for vengeance.

You know how in a lot of Mary Higgens Clark books you can guess the killer/criminal/antagonist because he/she seems so unlikely and farfetched to be bad that it HAS to be that person? This book is not like that! The answer is right under your nose the whole time.

One of the best Mary Higgins Clark books!
reviewed Daddy's Little Girl on + 4 more book reviews
This was my first Mary Higgins Clark book and I am disappointed that I did not find it to be suspensefull at all for someone labeled as the "Queen of Suspense". There were no big plot twists or surprises of the 'keep you guessing until the end of the book' variety. It came across as a very straight forward read. To a point, I have to wonder if my own life experiences, that allowed me to read the book from the same perspective as the person telling the story - first person from the little sister of a murder victim, played a part in that. I can state that her research was accurate and allowed her to write a completely credible story. Everything contained within the covers is accurate and reinforces the validity of the story. I did nearly find me forcing myself to finish the story and hope that if I find myself reading another of her stories, I hope will not be disappointed in the future.

I read this book my senior year of high school and absolutely loved it. It's a sad, tragic story of a girl who was the key witness in her older sister's murder and the effects that the murder had on her and her family. If you get a chance to read it, DO SO! It's great!

Writing in the first person a rarity for this veteran author has inspired and energized Clark. Her 21st novel of intrigue is her best in years, a tightly woven, emotionally potent tale of suspense and revenge. Clark's new heroine is Atlanta investigative journalist Ellie Cavanaugh, who was seven when her sister, Andrea, 15, was beaten to death by 20-year-old Rob Westerfield, scion of the wealthiest family in a small Westchester town. Now Westerfield is up for parole, so Ellie, now 30, returns home to speak out against him. When Westerfield is released, Ellie begins to write a book aimed at re-proving his guilt. Digging for evidence, she uncovers clues that Westerfield may have committed another murder as a youth, but that digging also enrages the Westerfields and other town members who think the man was railroaded. Before long, Ellie's life is in danger, as someone breaks into the house she's staying in, then later sets fire to it, nearly killing her, and as Westerfield himself begins to shadow her moves. What makes this novel work isn't only the considerable tension Clark teases from Ellie's precarious position, but the thoughtful backgrounding to the action. Ellie is cast as a lonely woman, without a lover and estranged from her father and half-brother: will she accept one or the other into her guarded life?; and she carries a heavy load of guilt for her sister's death, wondering at times if she is blinded by her thirst for vengeance. With its textured plot, well-sketched secondary characters, strong pacing and appealing heroine, this is Clark at her most winning.

Page-turning Suspense,

Ever popular fiction writer Mary Higgins Clark has written yet another spine-tingling tale in this latest read. As a slight deviation, the victim's sister tells the story in the first person. Twenty-two years ago, fifteen-year-old Andrea Cavanaugh was brutally murdered near her home in suburban West Chester County, New York. Her sister, Ellie, seven-years-old at the time, has shouldered the blame for not telling her parents where her sister might have gone on that fateful night. With the subsequent breakup of her family and her mother's alcoholism, Ellie has grown up remembering her father's "why didn't you tell us?"
Now, Ellie is twenty-nine-years-old and an investigative reporter in Atlanta. She returns to her childhood home on the eve of the release of her sister's murderer. Determined to prevent the killer to be exonerated with a new trial, Ellie starts a web page and begins to uncover startling new facts concerning her sister's killer. Though she faces opposition from members of the town who believe in the man's innocence, Ellie continues in her quest. But Ms. Higgins Clark has created a character the reader wants to champion even as her life becomes endangered when she journeys too close to the truth.

As the clues mount in this non-stop adventure, Ellie's relationship with her estranged father and half-brother becomes a factor in their effort to protect her from becoming a victim. Clue by clue, the identity of the murderer becomes solidified, but the reader still wonders if Ellie is not being misled. A brilliant read, suspenseful until the very end.

As usual with Mary Higgins Clark it's easy fast reading. However I wasn't wowed. It was suspenseful near the end of the book. But no edge of my seat had to know what was going to happen next. Ellie is a grown woman now, whose sister was murdered when she was a young girl. Her parents & herself have lived with guilt feeling they all could have done something to prevent her from being killed. The man convicted of killing her sister is about to be paroled. Ellie returns to her home town to try to prove he is the evil person she believes him to be.

Ellie was 7 when her 15 year old sister, Andrea, was murdered. Her testimony put weathly, 19 year old socialite Rob Westerfield in prison. Twenty two years later, he's out and using his family money and influence in an attempt to get a new trial to exonerate him. He's accused a developmentally disabled former classmate of Andrea's of the crime. Now an investigative reporter with her own guilt over the situation, Ellie is determined to prove Westerfield always was guilty. Her research puts her life in danger, as she gets closer to a confrontation with the true desperate killer.

Written in first person, I didn't enjoy this one as I have most of her other books, and felt the ending a bit abrupt.
