As Time Goes By

By: Mary Higgins Clark

Narrated by: Jan Maxwell

The #1 New York Times bestselling “Queen of Suspense” Mary Higgins Clark crafts a thrilling mystery in which a news reporter develops an interest in her birth parents just as she is assigned to cover the high-profile trial of a woman accused of murdering her wealthy husband.

Television journalist Delaney Wright is on the brink of stardom when she begins covering a sensational murder trial. She should be thrilled with the story of her career, but her growing desire to locate her birth mother consumes her thoughts. When Delaney’s friends Alvirah Meehan and her husband Willy offer to look into the mystery surrounding her birth, they uncover a shocking secret they do not want to reveal.

On trial for murder is Betsy Grant, widow of a wealthy doctor who has suffered from Alzheimer’s for eight years. When her once-upon-a-time celebrity lawyer urges her to accept a plea bargain, Betsy refuses: she will go to trial to prove her innocence.

Betsy’s stepson, Alan Grant, bides his time nervously as the trial begins. His substantial inheritance hangs in the balance—his only means of making good on payments he owes his ex-wife, his children, and increasingly angry creditors.

As the trial unfolds and the damning evidence against Betsy piles up, Delaney is convinced that Betsy is not guilty and frantically tries to prove her innocence. A true classic from Mary Higgins Clark, As Time Goes By is a thrilling read by “the mistress of high tension” (The New Yorker).

pretty good book k8nda dragged it out

good story but dragged a bit so the story got kind of boring

tried to have 3 back stories, should have stuck to two

LOVED IT!

I loved it and just couldn't stop listening to it. I know I'll have bags under me eyes from staying up so late. But I don't think I've read(when I used to read books) any Mary Higgins Clark's books I didn't like.

Absolutely love Mary Higgins Clark & Jan Maxwell

Completely loved the story.
Narrator has an amazing, soothing voice. Highly recommended anything from either.

Loved the whole book!!

I haven't found a book I didn't fall in love with that Mary wrote but this one had from beginning to end!! Beautiful story with suspense and turns that made you never want to stop listening/reading!!

Good series

I love and adore Mary Higgins Clark. If you want a very clean, yet good story, you should read any book that she has written. I enjoy this series. It is nice to see the producer’s side of tv.
