- Reviewed in the United States on September 1, 2017Very suspenseful and a very creepy character. So sad about the character Lally, I would have liked to have seen her make it but that would have made it a fairy tale huh but she did get some reward

- Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2023This was not MHC best work in my opinion. I didn’t appreciate the occasional cussing. Also, there were repeat pages, maybe during editing that should not have been included. I was very confused for a minute but just kept reading. She is still my favorite author.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2015Good narrative style, develops characters separately, but weaves it all together in a masterful climax. Suspense keeps you turning yet another page to find out what comes next. Don't start this at bedtime if you have to get up early in the morning!

5.0 out of 5 stars It was terribly exciting.
The way the narrative moves on from minute to minute, It is simply not possible to put down the book until you have finished reading. I have not come across such a spell binding book like this one

5.0 out of 5 stars A great read!
I had all of Mary Higgins Clark books but as I moved houses several times, I ended up giving them away. For a book written so long ago now, it’s still a great read. You can’t put the book down it’s that good!
