MY REVIEW:
Piece of My Heart by Mary Higgins Clark
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Piece of my Heart by Mary Higgins Clark and Alafair Burke is a 2021 Simon & Schuster publication.
The bittersweet conclusion of the ‘Under Suspicion’ series.
It is time for the long- awaited nuptials for Laurie and Alex- but before they can exchange vows, Alex’s nephew goes missing. As the puzzle deepens, lives are put on hold, and a child’s life is at stake.
Knowing this is the last book in the series makes it a little special. It is different from the standpoint that Laurie’s show is not in the forefront, as in the past. However, a cold case is still inserted into the plot via an old case of Laurie’s father, which could be connected to the current day kidnapping.
This is fast-paced installment that kept me on my toes. I never would have worked out whodunit or why, and fell right into the trap set for me.
Although I hate to see the series conclude- having hoped Alafair Burke might consider taking reigns- I think the series ended on a high note.
