Summary: A stranger is watching
Review: A stranger is watching by Mary Higgins Clark is a great book. It is about a little boy, whose mom was murdered a few years ago and his dad's new girl friend. They get kidnapped and are held for ransom. Now, I don't want to give the book away, but it is a great book with many twists and turns. Mary Higgins Clark, being the great author she is, does a great job of tying other people into the story.

A stranger is watching was a great book to me because of all of the suspense. The book even shows a little bit about working together and liking each other gets you a long way. If you like suspense and are a fan of Mary Higgins Clark books, this is a book you will definitly want to read!

Summary: Good book at beginning and almost to the End.
Review: Actually this was a very supspenseful book, it was well versed.One thing about MHC she doesn't give the best conclusion's. She tends to wrap up and race to finish, leaving readers asking "what the heck?" and not giving closure. It is too bad, otherwise this could have been one of her best. Oh well, it is still a really decent story and pretty fast paced. I raced through it myself. I would say read it, with warning it's a bit creepy.......

Summary: Great author; great book
Review: Four stars go to a wonderful author with several published books. A Stranger Is Watching was particularly intriguing. It keeps the reader interested and not wanting to stop. The short chapters make it an easy book to get hooked on. The mother of a family is killed and a local teen is found guilty of the murder. Ronald Thompson knows he did not kill Nina Peterson but he will be executed in just fifty-two hours. Steve Peterson, the husband of the victim and his new girlfriend, Sharon Martin have different points of view on capital punishment. Sharon and six year old Neil, son of Steve and Nina, get kidnapped by a man for ransom. Only Mary Higgins Clark could write a story this twisted and terrifying. With a good storyline to keep readers of all ages turning to read just "one more chapter," I would recommend this book to anybody that likes suspense. The only negative thing about this book is the way there are so many different groups of people and every chapter switches to tell about a different group each time. The first three chapters are kind of boring but once you get into the meat of the story and discover what is going on, there is no putting it down.
