I really didn't care all that much about the main characters, esp her love interest. No details. Too vague. 4/9/04 (  )cindyloumn | Jun 7, 2008 | It’s about a reporter trying to solve a mysterious death of a philantropist whom everyone thinks is a crook. ( )lopemopay | Nov 22, 2006 | Carley DeCarlo, a financial advisor newspaper journalist, becomes entangled in the mystery surrounding the plane crash of her extremely wealthy and successful stepbrother in law. After the crash Nicholas Spencer's company Gen-stone, a pharmaceutical research company working on a cancer vaccine, is on the verge of bankruptcy. The cancer vaccine they worked on is announced to be a flop and all of the corporate investors have lost their money. Then Spencer's widow's home is set on fire. Carley wonders if Nicholas Spencer is really dead, by acciddent or murder. Or did he fake his dead? Why are so many people connected to the cancer vaccine missing or dead? Nice read, but she has written better ones. dutchmarbel | Aug 7, 2006 | 0.023 seconds to build listing  no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0743412621, Mass Market Paperback)The "Queen of Suspense," Mary Higgins Clark, delivers a gripping tale of deception and tantalizing twists that might have been ripped from today's headlines.When Nicholas Spencer, the charismatic head of a company that has developed an anticancer vaccine, disappears without a trace, reporter Marcia "Carley" DeCarlo is assigned the story. Word that Spencer, if alive, has made off with huge sums of money -- including the life savings of many employees -- doesn't do much to change Carley's already low opinion of Spencer's wife, Lynn, who is also Carley's stepsister and whom everyone believes is involved. But when Lynn's life is threatened, she asks Carley to help her prove that she wasn't her husband's accomplice. As the facts unfold, however, Carley herself becomes the target of a dangerous, sinister group that will stop at nothing to get what they want.

I guess that the book was okay for a one time read. I thought that it was slightly predictable and I probably wouldn't read it again. But I have definitely read worse.
