Rating:  Summary: Mysteriously interesting Review: Being an ardent Agatha Christie fan, Mary Higgins Clark was recommended to me and this was the first volume of her books that I read.There aren't any detectives like Hercules Poirot or Miss Marple still the stories keep you glued to the book till you reach the end. 'Weep no more, my lady' has a certain Christie's touch. The story is about a young woman Elizabeth. Her sister, Leila is murdered and Ted, her sister's fiance is convicted, with Elizebeth being the only witness. There are other charachters like Leila's friend the Baron and Baroness, her agent, another rival actress. The interesting thing is that each charachter has some motive for the murder. And finally the real murderer turns out to be... (You have to read the book to find out). 'Stillwatch' is about a young reporter who is making a television documentary. But what she does NOT know is that this documentary is linked to her past and will affect her present life. Not much of a mystery here but still an interesting read. 'A cry in the night' reminded me of Alfred Hitchcock's movie Psycho and hence the reason for 4 stars. A good selection for those who have a preference for mysteries (minus politics, violence and sex).

Rating:  Summary: Where are the children Review: I have to say that the book started out pretty slow, but it got more and more interesting as you read it. I have read several suspense books by this author, but I have to say that I believe that this is the best ever.

Rating:  Summary: A Cry in the Night Review: I love all of Mary Higgins Clark books but this is probably my least favorite. Although it is very suspenseful, I thought it seemed evil and sick. I first I had no idea who it was but when I finally found out I was horrified! Still, you should read it. Don't miss any of Mary Higgins Clark's books!
Rating:  Summary: The Cradle Will Fall Review: I loved this book! It wasn't her best, but still great. Although you know who the killer is pretty quick, you wonder who else may be involved and who is going to be murdered next! Don't miss it!
Rating:  Summary: Weep No More My Lady - EXCELLENT! Review: I loved this book, I thought it was great. The setting and characters were very interesting. I was certainly fooled with the murderer, what a surprise! You have to read this!
Rating:  Summary: Better selections....2 out of 3 Review: I read all stories & enjoyed most of them. I would say, this is a 4 1/2 starrer. The only thing keeping me from giving it a 5 is that I didn't like the "Cry in the Night" so much. Had it been "Where are the Children", I would have given it a 10 star rate, if there is such a thing :-)Moreover, I like the compilation here better than the other MHC trilogy. After reading 6 MHC stories in a row, I am becoming familiar with her style & events albeit characters taking on different forms. Nevertheless, her books are interesting & will make you lose track of time.

Rating:  Summary: Stillwatch Review: If you enjoy these suspenseful books, then this is the book for you. It's a book about a woman named Pat, who is a reporter for a local cable news station that is doing a segment on Senator Abbigal Jennings and how she may become the first female Vice President. Along the way she comes into problems. Pat is starting to get threats about the airing of the segment.
