Pretty typical Mary Higgins Clark. Lots of twists and turns; you're never sure who to suspect. Quick enjoyable read.

Way too much foreshadowing and over explaining.
"A discerning observer might have realized that the expression was caused by the acceptance of reality rather than peace of mind."

this was such a good read for halloween. entertaining and full of mystery... mary higgins clark is so good at suspicion. i love the idea of making a tv show to re-create an event (as long as there is consent, of course), to hopefully help to bring peace to those who lost someone in the past. especially in this case since it was about a murder.
imagine seeing people you used to be so close with, being under suspicion once again, all eyes of the community on you... and searching out a murderer of a cold case. that's exactly what this story is and does. i loved every second of it.
and i think it's so cool that this book was so well received that mhc continued writing books with the same premise in this under suspicion series. as this is the series her last book was written in before she passed in 2020, i'm so excited to continue it and read what she was able to share with us before the end.
mary higgins clark is a favorite author of my mom's, and i think that made loving this story all the better. this was my third book in my journey with this author, and so far my favorite. another reason to be so excited to continue on and share my love for reading with my mom. who is the reason i love to read at all.

The main storyline was quite entertaining and suspenseful. The subplot with "Blue Eyes" was somewhat unbelievable and out of place to me. The story would have been better without it. I was not a fan of the way the author switched between first and third person as well as between narrators. Those transitions were awkward and sometimes confusing. Overall a fun read.
This was a refreshingly normal and banal read after my encounter with Beautiful You. Clark created a very Agatha Christie-esque cozy mystery here with two separate murders but no carnage. A nice, fast, and simple read when you're looking for something white bread.
Na het lezen van de andere delen van de Under Suspicion serie moest ik het onofficiële eerste deel ook lezen. Nu is eindelijk duidelijk wat er precies met Greg gebeurd is en waarom. Dit boek is, net als de andere delen, meeslepend en de opzet is anders dan bij andere thrillers. Er gebeurt genoeg om het interessant te houden en er zijn ook voldoende karakters die allemaal iets toevoegen, zonder open eind. De uiteindelijke dader is wat voorspelbaar, het plot daarentegen toch onverwacht. Ik vind deze serie een absolute aanrader!
