Description

When Laurie Moran’s husband was brutally murdered, only three-year-old Timmy saw the face of his father’s killer. Five years later his piercing blue eyes still haunt Timmy’s dreams. Laurie is haunted by more—the killer’s threat to her son as he fled the scene: “Tell your mother she’s next, then it’s your turn . . .”

Now Laurie is dealing with murder again, this time as the producer of a true-crime, cold-case television show. The series will launch with the twenty-year-old unsolved murder of Betsy Powell. Betsy, a socialite, was found suffocated in her bed after a gala celebrating the graduation of her daughter and three friends. The sensational murder was news nationwide. Reopening the case in its lavish setting and with the cooperation of the surviving guests that night, Laurie is sure to have a hit on her hands. But when the estranged friends begin filming, it becomes clear each is hiding secrets . . . small and large.

And a pair of blue eyes is watching events unfold, too . . .

Reviews

Boring

By CCLM109
This started off well and then rapidly deteriorated into a truly terrible book. With something like 11 POVs absolutely none of he characters had any depth, and the constant referral to Blue Eyes was beyond irritating. The 4 graduates reunite after 20 years and there is not a single word written about that moment. Other than one of them faints. Ridiculous. It became so tedious and boring I didn’t even care who the murderer was and gave up reading.
Must read!

I could hardly force myself to put this book down to eat, sleep or work. I can’t wait to read the rest of the series!

whodunit soap opera

By Toni FGMAMTC
This is a whodunit soap opera-ish mystery. It did a great job of making everyone appear guilty at times and not guilty at others. Also all of the potential suspects are from the same circle so there’s lots of drama between them. They have history with each other and most of it isn’t good. Many of them hate one another actually, and almost everyone hated the person who was killed.
Great story & couldn't put it down

Loved this book from beginning to end!!! A true must read
Weak plot

By Amigo73
It was difficult to feel much empathy for the characters in this novel. The plotline was quite week and full of holes. Ms. Clark seems to have forgotten or does not realize that intelligent readers know that motive does not equal guilt. I basically did a lot of eye-rolling as I read.
A Great Quick Read

Another page turner. It was a quick read with an interesting plot and I can't wait to read her next book featuring Under Suspicion.
