When Kay Lansing marries wealthy widower Peter Carrington, she is well aware of the rumours surrounding the mysterious death of Peter's first wife Grace, who was found floating in the family pool ten years ago, pregnant at the time. Kay also discovers that Peter is a chronic sleepwalker who suffers from periodic nightmares.

But are the two deaths linked? And why does a melody that Kay cannot identify keep playing in her head every time she approaches the family chapel?

This book was boring. I only finished it because I hate to not finish books. By the way the characters spoke I wasnt sure if we were in England or New York. I feel like because the author is very dated.. her writing style was also very dated. I tried, but I wont read another one of her books again.... mehDescription: When Kay Lansing marries wealthy widower Peter Carrington, she is well aware of the rumours surrounding the mysterious death of Peter's first wife Grace, who was found floating in the family pool ten years ago, pregnant at the time.

This book was really bad. The characters are so flat that calling them two dimensional would be a compliment and tend to do and think things that haveno basis in reality. The story is predictable and written in such a way that I found myself thinking, after every few pages, "Ah yes, the author is trying to trick me into thinking xyz, but it won't be." It was done in such an obvious way that I actually felt insulted. This story is written from the perspective of everyone who has even thought of
Interesting sleepwalking component in this mystery.
I have a weak spot for Mary Higgins Clarks books. Her suspense novels were the first ones Ive ever read as an adolescent and certainly not the last. I was immediately captured by riveting murder mysteries and dark secrets, unraveling themselves with every turning page. I dont know why should a 12 year old girl be more interested in detective mysteries than teen books, but what can I say, it was a perfect match. By then I knew I loved books, and I knew that one day Id grow up to be a writer but
There is no denying Ms. Clark's success as an author, but I was disappointed with this book. I read it because I finished my first book on vacation too quickly and I wanted something else to read. I came very close to putting it down early on but I hate doing that, so I pushed through and finished it. I was glad I did finish it but it wasn't easy. The book borrows heavily from "Rebecca" and the author's wanton usage of cliches, especially to close chapters, became annoying and repetitive. If you
This book was a bit of a chore to read, unlike any of the other MHC's books I've read. I was between two characters from the beginning for the murderer, but was leaning more toward one of them and that one ended up being the culprit. The romance part was too sudden, I felt as though several chapters were missing because I was confused at first by what had happened.The ending wrapped everything up, but I didn't enjoy this story much at all. Not a book I'd recommend.
