A Columbia University senior, about to graduate and already accepted at Duke University Law School, he walked out of his apartment on Manhattan's Upper West Side without a word to his college roommates and has never been seen again. However, he does make one ritual phone call to his mother every year: on Mother's Day. Each time, he assures her he is fine, refuses to answer her frantic questions, then hangs up.

Mack's sister, Carolyn, is now twenty-six, a law school graduate, and has just finished her clerkship for a civil court judge in Manhattan. She has endured two family tragedies, yet she realizes that she will never be able to have closure and get on with her life until she finds her brother. She resolves to discover what happened to Mack and why he has found it necessary to hide from them. So this year when Mack makes his annual Mother's Day call, Carolyn interrupts to announce her intention to track him down, no matter what it takes.

The next morning after Mass, her uncle, Monsignor Devon MacKenzie, receives a scrawled message left in the collection basket: "Uncle Devon, tell Carolyn she must not look for me. Carolyn's pursuit of the truth about Mack's disappearance swiftly plunges her into a world of unexpected danger and unanswered questions. What is the secret that Gus and Lil Kramer, the superintendents of the building in which Mack was living, have to hide?

What do Mack's old roommates, the charismatic club owner Nick DeMarco and the cold and wealthy real estate tycoon Bruce Galbraith, know about Mack's disappearance? Is Nick connected to the disappearance of Leesey Andrews, who had last been seen in his trendy club? Can the police possibly believe that Mack is not only alive, but a serial killer, a shadowy predator of young women?

Was Mack also guilty of the brutal murder of his drama teacher and the theft of his taped sessions with her? Carolyn's passionate search for the truth about her brother -- and for her brother himself -- leads her into a deadly confrontation with someone close to her whose secret he cannot allow her to reveal.

Good book, though the ending was disappointing. The author spent so much time building up to a finish, that when the finish came, it was quite a let down.

I'm not talking a little let down, I mean really disappointing. The kind of thing where you finish reading and then look for the rest of the pages that obviously fell out of the book. She left the final scene until pretty much the last chapter. But then there was so much to finish off that it just said, "Okay, all these people are dead, all th Good book, though the ending was disappointing.

But then there was so much to finish off that it just said, "Okay, all these people are dead, all the bad guys are dead, and no, it doesn't matter that there was so much more going on in the book, we are just trying to finish inside our allotted pages so this is what you get.

What secret does the superintendents of Mack's former apartment have to hide? What do his old roommates know about his disappearance?

Since I have read so many of them, I am getting better at predicting who the "murderer" is, but I still find that I can't stop turning the pages to find if my guess is correct.

She is a clean writer and gives me just enough suspense without making me too scared. View all 3 comments. Mary Higgins Clark is truly the queen of suspense. This is such a great book. I love the characters and the ending is perfect. Jan 28, Misty rated it it was ok. I didn't love nor hate this book. I did like that the book was a page turner. I liked the short chapters allowing me to read 5 minutes here or 10 minutes there.

I did like that it was an easy read for the situation I was in. I liked that the author included so many suspects. I did feel creepted out by the murderer thinking in first person. I did think it was blood and guts clean for a murder mystery. I was disappointed in the main character, Carolyn. She wasn't very characteristic of what I imagi I didn't love nor hate this book. She wasn't very characteristic of what I imagine a privileged, graduated Columbia law student, want to be DA indicating to me a fighter, self assured, slightly arrogant, hard working, driven-kind of girl , New Yorker would be.

This girl had no sense of self preservation as all NY women have to consider constantly. I didn't feel like she was investigating and thinking to match her education and experience working for a judge.

She almost seemed more like a high school graduate to me-inexperienced, naive, not real assertive I thought the book was a little on the predictable side. I also thought the epilogue was not very complete about tying up all the lose ends. And, to learn Carolyn married Nick-again, high schoolish. To think of where she was in her life and where she wanted to go I was disappointed in this match.

I thought he seemed like a stereo-typical club owner hitting on all the girls. I didn't see a lot of integrity in him. I thought he could of been more forthright with the police.

It didn't help that as a college students, Mack-his best friend, didn't didn't think to highly of him for his sister. I feel as though the Mary Higgins Clark books are good for quick reads.

For me all her books seem to be three point five star books. I think my main problem is that they all seem to be a lot of the same, in my opinion. Whether it is simply due to the selection of her books I have read or whether such is the case all I feel as though the Mary Higgins Clark books are good for quick reads. Whether it is simply due to the selection of her books I have read or whether such is the case all over I cannot say.
