Publisher Description
From Queen of Suspense Mary Higgins Clark, a thriller “that grabs you with the first paragraph and never let’s go” (USA TODAY) about a woman desperate to uncover the truth behind her beloved stepmother’s death.
At a party in Manhattan, Maggie Holloway—one of the fashion world’s most successful photographers—is thrilled to be reunited with her beloved stepmother. A widow now, Nuala Moore is equally delighted to see her long-lost stepdaughter, and she invites Maggie to spend a few weeks at her home in Newport, Rhode Island. But when Maggie arrives, she finds Nuala murdered, apparently by a burglar.
Heartbroken, Maggie is stunned to learn she had inherited Nuala’s stunning Victorian home...and horrified when she begins to suspect that Nuala’s death was not random but part of a diabolical plot conceived by a twisted mind. When Nuala’s dear old friend, Greta Shipley, dies suddenly of supposedly natural causes, Maggie is convinced that there is a link between these two and other recent deaths among the older women of Newport. What she doesn’t realize is that she has now become a target for the killer as well, and that each clue she uncovers brings her closer to an unimaginable fate.

Moonlight Becomes You
Scary from beginning until the end. Being buried alive is one of the most frightening things to even imagine.

Fairly Unsatisfying
This was the first book I’d ever read of the well known Mary Higgins Clark. I’d heard of her for many years, and she is often compared to Agatha Christie, who I do hold in high regard. Maybe some of her other books were better, because this one wasn’t that for me. The resolution isn’t satisfying for me as a fan of mysteries, and the hook that starts the book takes 70 chapters to get back to it. I’ll give her other books a try, but this one fell short for me.
Moonlight Becomes You
Mary Higgins Clark has done a superb job again. I enjoyed how she captured her audience. I never knew who the murderer was till the end. I enjoyed the game with the Victorian Bell and it’s importance in the plot.
