The Queen of Suspense Mary Higgins Clark and Alafair Burke are here with their fifth enthralling mystery in the New York Times bestselling Under Suspicion series as television producer Laurie Moran must solve the murder of a celebrity doctorbefore a mysterious stalker plots his next move.
Television producer Laurie Moran recently became engaged to her investigative television shows former host, Alex Buckley, and since then, the two have been happily planning a summer wedding, preparing for Alexs confirmation to a federal judicial appointment, and searching for the perfect New York City home for their new life together.
But then Laurie is approached by Robert and Cynthia Bell, parents of Dr. Martin Bell, a physician who was shot dead as he pulled into the driveway of his Greenwich Village carriage house five years ago. The Bells are sure that Martins disgraced and erratic wife, Kendra, carried out the murder. Determined to prove Kendras guilt and win custody over their grandchildren, they plead with Laurie to feature their sons case on Under Suspicion, ensuring her that Kendra is willing to cooperate.
As Laurie dives into the case, she learns that Martin wasnt the picture-perfect husband, father, and doctor he appeared to be and was carrying secrets of his own. And what does the web of lies ensnaring the Bell family have to do with a dangerous stranger, who gazes at Laurie from afar and thinks, She is actually quite a lovely girl, Im sure shes going to be missed
