We'll Meet Again

When Molly Lasch’s husband, Gary, is found with his head bashed in, his wife is the likely suspect. Although Molly claims she’s innocent, she’s found guilty and serves time in Niantic Prison, at the State Women’s Correctional Center. Upon her release, Molly teams up with Fran Simmons, an investigative reporter for the NAF Cabel Network, to prove her innocence and find the real killer. What they discover is that Molly’s surrounded by back-stabbing friends, a group of money-hungry doctors abusing the HMO health care system, and even a crazy scientist experimenting on patients. What I thought was going to be a romantic mystery turned into a science fiction story with shallow characters and a completely implausible plot. It’s show more not what I expected from this author. show less

When I first started reading this book, I was fascinated by how quickly MHC can pull her reader into a story. I quickly remembered how enthralled I was while reading her other books. However, I seem to have forgotten how incredibly wordy she is. The last 27 pages of this book are the best - fast paced, gripping, and pure MHC; but it doesn’t counteract the 287 pages of extended dialogue, plodding stream of consciousness, and character bombardment.

Molly Carpenter Lasch is accused of murdering her husband quite brutally with a Remington bronze sculpture and is incarcerated on those charges. Her memory of that night was nonexistant until she was out on parole and bit by bit events of that evening started fitting into place. It was surprisingly easy to keep track of the characters in the book, and the ending was not at all anticipated. I enjoyed this novel and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys suspense.

"We'll Meet Again" by Mary Higgins Clark, is the perfect example of why I enjoy reading her novels. Ms. Clark has always had the ability to write interesting novels with well thought out plots, unique characters, and settings that are well described. As fans of Ms. Clark will attest to, her many novels are quite different from one another, and each hold the reader's interest from the first page to the last. If you have not yet read, "We'll Meet Again", I would recommend adding it to your tbr list.

Not MHC’s best but still very good. She had the title “Wueen of Suspense” for good reason! Her books are always a good read.
