Summary: A suspenseful novel a woman who witnesses a murder
Comment: This exciting novel is about a woman named Lacey Farrell, who lives in Manhattan and is a real estate agent. One day she is witness to the murder of Isabelle Waring, whose daughter, Heather, was killed in a car accident. Lacey is placed in the witness protection program, and sent to live in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Before Isabelle died, she made Lacey promise to give her daughter's journal to her father, and asked her to read it too. Isabelle was convinced that Heather's death was not an accident. So Lacey takes the journal, gives the original copy to the police, gives a copy to Heather's father, and makes a copy for herself. But then she gets into trouble with the police, because they say that she could be charged with removal of evidence from a crime scene. While Lacey is in Minneapolis, somehow the murderer of Isabelle Waring has managed to track her down. I enjoyed reading this novel, because I liked being kept in suspense and not knowing what would happen next. I recommend this book to people who like to read suspenseful books with unpredictable plots. This novel is so unpredictable, it will keep readers guessing throughout the entire book.

Summary: A Suspenseful Murder
Comment: This book is about a girl named Lacey Farrell, a real estate agent in Manhattan. She gets offered a co-op and she is witness to a murder. The dying person, Isabelle Waring, is sure that the murderer was trying to get her dead daughter's journal. Lacey makes a copy of the journal, which turns out to be very dangerous.
This is an example of foreshadowing because as the book goes on Lacey is almost shot three times and almost killed in a woman's house in the end. This book created a sense of suspense because as I was reading I began to think Lacey might actually die and it made the book very good to read.
Lacey had to go into the witness protection program and goes off to live in Minneapolis. She gets a fake name, which is Alice Carroll. She joins a gym and even meets a guy named Tom Lynch that she begins to date on and off. Eventually she has to break it off because she can't bear lying to him. She finds out that the killer knows of her whereabouts.
Lacey heads back to New York to find out the truth and solve the murders before she becomes the next victim. This book also used a lot of imagery. A good example of imagery would be "He wore a gray wig over his sandy hair, there was a graying stubble covering his cheeks and chin, and his lawyers suit had been replaced by a shapeless sweater worn over faded jeans."
My opinion on this book was that it was very good and I always wanted to keep reading because I wanted to know what was going to happen next. It was very suspenseful. It was long but easy to read and had good vocabulary that I didn't know yet.

Summary: Lacey Farrell, Girl Detective
Comment: In this suspense tale, Lacey Farrell, a New York realtor, comes face to face with an elderly woman's killer in an apartment she is trying to sell. The woman's daughter recently died in an accident, but she told Lacey she believed it was murder, and gave Lacey the girl's journal to study. The killer now stalks Lacey, who must enter the witness-protection program and begin a new life. Lacey tries to piece together clues about the death of the woman's daughter by reading her cryptic journal.
"Queen of Suspense" Mary Higgins Clark writes about attractive, independent young women who are in peril. I always picture a young Jacqueline Smith playing all of her heroines. This novel is not one of her best. It is full to overflowing with a cast of forgettable characters meant to keep us guessing which one could be the villain. The plot unfolds at a snail's pace and is padded with minute and distracting details that lead nowhere. A new character, introduced in the last chapters, changes the outcome, which feels suddenly rushed and trite. Clark has written many nail-biting thrillers; Pretend You Don't See Her is not among them.
