Rating:  Summary: STASEY TACKETT, WRITER, HAS ONE WISH: TO BE LIKE MHC! Review: This doctor in the story is quite disturbed, but has excellent taste in food and wine. In fact, I got a warm feeling in my throat as he dined. And a cold one in my stomach as he dragged that poor pregnant corpse across the ice to his trunk. I can see him as kind of glazed over and brilliant. His eyes are dull from frustration, their color darkened from disapointment. It is the act of his art which makes him alive, and the interference of anyone which makes him kill. What can I say? I loved it
Rating:  Summary: One of her best! Review: This is a great book, one of Mary Higgins Clark's best! A good story, very suspenseful! The identity of the murderer is known from the beginning which in this case only adds to the suspense. The reader knows about the danger the main character is in while she is totally oblivious. After reading a couple of Mary Higgins Clark's novels it gets rather easy to guess the perpetrator, so this is a nice change.
Rating:  Summary: Chilling, Suspenceful, Psychopathic Mystery. Review: This is a wonderful and Exciting book that you can't put down.

Kate DeMaio (the main character) is trying to solve a mystery that will end up leading her to Dr. Highley's research, but before she can finish she is scheduled for an operation with Dr. Highley.
Rating:  Summary: Favorite MHC book ever Review: This is my absolute favorite book that Mary Higgins Clark has written. This book is not a murder mystery but more of a mystery of what happens in a clinic. You find out the murderer early on in the book. within the first few chapters as a matter of fact. this book is filled with interesting descriptions of the characters, their actions, and just amazing ideas for a book that was written in the early 80's. Makes you wonder about the things that are actually happening today. this book is truly fascinating and one that you will not be able to put down. This one will earn a permanent place on your bookshelf. I have come back to this book time and time again.

Rating:  Summary: It's masterfully written Review: This is my first time to read a book by Mary Higgins Clark and i turned an instant fan...The plot is well presented. It aroused my curiosity and make me want to finish the book in just one seating. The descriptions of the scenarios/situations were vividly and emphatically stressed thatat one point i felt like Katie de Maio. Moreover, the whole story did not center only on murder, greediness for power/ambition but on love of two people as well (Richard and Katie),the last part is very moving...this book has a heart.
Rating:  Summary: Very suspenceful! Review: This is one of Mary Higgins Clark's best yet! The story is fast paced and unlike her more recent novels there is a reasonable amount of characters to keep straight! This was one story that grabbed me immediately and I could not put it down! The plot was believable and just scary enough not to want to read it alone.I would recommend any book by this author, but this early one is particularly suspenseful!

Rating:  Summary: Great Murder Mystery! Review: This was a fantastic book. I loved it, my Aunt loved it, and you will love it to. So what am i saying? READ THIS BOOK! you will regret it if you didn't. ENJOY!
Rating:  Summary: Intriguing, Suspenseful, and just plain out GREAT!!!!! Review: This was a very suspenseful but intriguing mystery novel! Not only did it get the detection juices flowing ,but also the survival instincts as well. It might have been better if the killer was not uncovered near the beginning of the book but rather near the end. Every time a new chapter was started there was another surprising turn of events just waiting for the reader. This gave it the suspense needed to hold the reader's attention. Also, changing places and stories each chapter made me want to keep reading so I could find out what was going to happen in one story, and then another story, and another, until I finally got to the end. It would have been nice to find out what happened between Katie and Richard after Katie had recovered from her near death experience, but it was also good to leave the reader making their own conclusions. I look forward to reading more of Mary Higgins Clark books in the future and so should you.
