The sleeping beauty killer
Casey Carter was convicted of murdering her fiancé—famed philanthropist Hunter Raleigh III—fifteen years ago. And Casey claims—has always claimed—she’s innocent. Although she was charged and served out her sentence in prison, she is still living “under suspicion.” She hears whispers at the grocery store. She can’t get a job. Even her own mother treats her like she’s guilty. Her story attracts the attention of Laurie Moran and the Under Suspicion news team—it’s Casey’s last chance to finally clear her name, and Laurie pledges to exonerate her. With Alex Buckley taking a break from the show—cooling his potential romance with Laurie—Under Suspicion introduces a new on-air host named Ryan Nichols, a young legal whiz with a Harvard Law degree, Supreme Court clerkship, experience as a federal prosecutor, and regular stints on the cable news circuit. He’s got a big reputation and the attitude to match it. Ryan has no problems with steering—and stealing—the show, and even tries to stop Laurie from taking on Casey’s case because he’s so certain she’s guilty.
Daddy’s gone A – hunting
What was Kate Connelly—a tall, glamorous CPA—doing in her family’s antique furniture museum when it exploded into flames in the middle of the night? Why was Gus, a disgruntled retired employee, with her? Now Gus is dead, and Kate lies in a coma, unable to explain the tragedy’s mysterious link to a decades-old missing persons case. Nor to warn her sister what could happen next. In a novel of dazzling suspense and excitement, Mary Higgins Clark once again demonstrates the mastery of her craft that has made her books international bestsellers for years. She presents the reader with a perplexing mystery, a puzzling question of identity, and a fascinating cast of characters—one of whom may just be a ruthless killer.
Souviens-toi
Menley et son mari Adam, brillant avocat new-yorkais, se sont installés pour l’été à Cap Cod, la station balnéaire chic, proche de Boston, avec leur petite fille. Une obsession pour eux : surmonter le traumatisme dû à la disparition accidentelle de leur premier bébé. Mais on ne parle à Cap Cod que de la mort d’une richissime jeune femme, et des soupçons de meurtre qui pèsent sur son mari, héritier de sa fortune. Dans le même temps, Menley a l’impression d’être environnée de menaces, dans la splendide demeure ancienne qu’ils ont louée, théâtre, deux siècles plus tôt, d’événements dramatiques… Et nous voici enfermés peu à peu, avec ce couple déjà si douloureusement éprouvé, dans un piège diabolique, comme sait seule les imaginer la romancière de La Nuit du renard (Grand Prix de littérature policière 1980) et de Nous n’irons plus au bois. De ce drame en un milieu hanté, lourd de crimes anciens et de rapines, Mary Higgins Clark, avec l’aide du diable qui aime les bons auteurs, tire un parti étonnant.
