A headline-making finance scandal and a breathtaking tale of deception collide in #1 New York Times bestselling author Mary Higgins Clark’s finest thriller yet.

As the sole assistant to a famous upscale interior designer, Lane Harmon is accustomed to visiting opulent homes. So her latest job at a modest New Jersey townhouse is unusual. Then she learns the home belongs to the wife of disgraced finance magnate Parker Bennett, who vanished two years earlier, along with the five billion dollar hedge fund he managed.

The debate over whether Bennett was suicidal or staged his disappearance still continues. Both his clients and the federal government want to trace the money and find him. But Lane is surprisingly moved by Mrs. Bennett’s steadfast faith in her husband’s innocence. Gradually, Lane is also drawn to the Bennetts’ son, Mark, who is equally determined to prove his father is not guilty. What she doesn’t realize is the closer she gets to the notorious family, the more her life—and that of her five-year-old daughter—is in jeopardy.

Best book by this author in years!I have been sorely disappointed in the last six or eight books I purchased by this author but this one has the feel of her earlier works! It almost feels as if the other recent titles were ghostwritten, and this one was written by the great lady herself! Loved it! Will listen to it again.

Pleasantly surprised by this book. Lots of surprises and a surprise ending. My husband and I have read lots of Clark. But she still managed to turn the tables. One thing we really appreciate about Clark is the lack of cursing in her books. We have had to terminate reading quite a few books because of a writers lack of vocabulary. Often needing to resort to cursing to demonstrate anger, rage, or irritation. We realize Clark is a formula writer. But most are. This is a book that carried out interest. We would recommend.

Good read
