I was a little disappointed with this book. I usually really enjoy Mary Higgins Clark's book but I found this one to be rather predictable. I did like the characters but again it just seemed really predictable, usually her books have me guessing.
I don't think she ever writes a bad book. Loved this one!!! :)
This book was very interesting. Full of twists and turns. I really enjoyed this book and I will read more by this author.
I vaguely feel this books is "suspense" with a question mark. It's not really a mystery per se and it's definitely not a thriller. Most of it can be figured out relatively quickly and there are no surprises. So it was an okay read, I guess. Nothing amazing.
I received this as a gift. I haven't read Clark for over 20 years so I didn't really remember her style of her writing. Reading the synopsis, I was intrigued by how much was going on in this novel in only 276 pages. Easy reading. Not a lot of complicated story lines. In fact, the biggest reveal of all regarding Delaney's birth mother was painfully obvious even before I read half the book. It was ok storytelling. Don't think I will read her again but if you have a lot going on and you need an entertaining, easy read, pick it up...but for free at the library!

I haven't read/listened to a Mary Higgins Clark book in a while. I have forgotten what an amazing job she does have so many things happening in a story and still keeps you wondering til almost the end.
Another great book! Was sure glad I had plenty of time to listen... Finished in 2 days!

This book was... not great? It might just be because i love mysteries so much that i watch/read a ton of them but i was able to guess the ending from very early on in the book
As Time Goes By by Mary Higgins Clark was a book I'd bought this summer because it'd been ages since I last read one of hers. I read a lot of MHC when I was in middle school, and she's one of the authors who made me fall in love with thrillers. With her death, I decided I had to move this one to the top of my list. Y'all, her writing was just as captivating as I remembered, and now I want to go back and read even more. This story focuses on Delaney, a TV journalist. In her professional life, she's covering the murder of a wealthy doctor. Accused of his murder is his wife who maintains her innocence. Delaney is determined to find the truth of this story. In her personal life, Delaney wants to find out the truth about her past. She was adopted, and she wants to find out the truth about her birth parents. As you might infer, there are some intersections in Delaney's personal and professional life as she searches for answers. This was a great way for me to remember a legend, and I hope to (re)read more of her "classics" down the road.
