I've Got You Under My Skin

Mary Higgins Clark didn’t accidentally get her title, “Queen of Suspense” she earned it. Even in her 80’s she still spins a chilling tale that keeps you up late at night, afraid to put the book down in case you miss something. The enchantment of her books; the thing that makes them so spine-tingling, is they could actually happen to you – or me. In I’VE GOT YOU UNDER MY SKIN a seemingly senseless crime has been committed and a vicious threat shadows a woman and her child. Not knowing why – or when the killer will strike again makes life unbearably difficult for Laurie and her son Timmy. Yet, life must go on. Laurie, a producer of true-crime cold case stories, has focused on a twenty year old murder not knowing that the two, unrelated cases, are coming together with force of an oncoming train. The reader will be startled by the complex, tangled ending with more false clues, suspects and surprises than ever thought imaginable. And – there is that pair of ice blue eyes. . . even they can be deceiving. Review requested by Simon & Schuster
