Summary: The Dead Don¿t Ring Bells
Comment: In the Nineteenth Century Victorians feared being buried alive. Some of them had s bell hung over their grave with a string threaded through an air vent in the coffin, so they could ring it if necessary, and they had their graves watched for a week after burial in case the bell rang.
New York photographer Maggie Holloway becomes the target of a serial killer when she discovers a link between the murder of her elderly stepmother and the deaths of several wealthy older women at Latham Manor, a Newport mansion, a retirement center.
While visiting the women's graves, she notices each has a bell buried near the headstone, a macabre gesture by the killer who has an elaborate financial scam underway. As Maggie gets closer to the truth, she unwittingly puts herself in danger of being buried alive.

Summary: Moonlight Becomes You
Comment: My wife convinced me to give her favorite writer a chance since I like a good suspenseful story. I found her pick rather dissappointing. The premise of elderly folks being killed for monetary gain is nothing new in fiction. The fact that it went on so long with no one uncovering the heinous acts ruined the book's believeability. There were no real twists in the story that a reader could not figure out. Also, the heroine is no great catch. She spends a huge part of her time missing obvious clues and growing upset that a certain man she has a romantic interest in (and who is too good for her) can't read her mind. There is a creepy and suspenseful opening to the book that lets you know immediately that the main character is in dire peril, but I'm sad to say that as the story unfolds, and you get to know her better, you find yourself rooting for the heroine's rescuer to show up several minutes too late. I'm sure Mary Higgins Clark is a fine writer, but this book can't be an example of her best work.

Summary: This Book Rocks!
Comment: I like Mary Higgins Clark and Moonlight Becomes You is one of her best books and is a page turner that you just can't put down until the very last page and a book you want to keep and read again, I liked everything about the book, including Maggie who is a wonderful heroine who is strong and no mamby pamby weakling! I recommend this awesome book, it totally rocks!
