I became a very quick fan of this series from Mary Higgins Clark and Alafair Burke! This is the second in the Under Suspicion series and this is a series that I would really like to have continued for many more books! I love the characters and I‘ve found myself attached to them!

Such a wise decision to have Alafair Burke co-write this series. Such an improvement from the first book. Definitely plan to continue with the series. #MountTBR #ReadingUSA2019 #NewYork #LitsyAtoZ #LetterC

Pamwurtzler @squirrelbrain @BarbaraBB Same here!! I love books set in New York! 6y
Librarybelle Nice! Glad you enjoyed this one! 6y
NatalieR @squirrelbrain @BarbaraBB @Pamwurtzler I should have clarified. The MC lives in NY, the case the MC works is set in California. I already have a book ✅ off for Cali, so I went with NY for MHC living in NY. A lot of maneuvering. 😜 6y
NatalieR @kaye Thanks! 😊 6y

This is a first in a series. I listened to the audiobook. Laurie Moran is a TV producer who wants to try to solve a 20 year old murder of a woman by having all the key players come on her investigative reality show. As the show goes on new evidence arises and so does the danger. I thought it was great and I'm looking forward to more in the series.

JaclynW I haven't read a Mary Higgins Clark for so long! 7y
Rachbb3 @JaclynW Me either! I was just scrolling through Libby looking for an audiobook and this one jumped out. It was good too. 😊 7y
JaclynW @Rachbb3 I will have to go scrolling! Maybe I can squeeze one in between book club books, for old times sake. ☺ 7y
Andrew65 I've read book 4 in the series and really enjoyed it. 7y
