Review: Successful and wealthy lawyer Emily Graham buys back her ancestral home in a small seaside town not far out of New York. A hundred years before this, her great,great grandaunt, Madeleine Shapley disappeared while waiting on the porch for her fiance to call. Over the next few years, two more young girls disappeared, never to be seen again. Emily desides to continue the excavation of the pool which had been started by the previous owners but, when the digger has gone down only a bit further, two skeletons are uncovered, one of which proves to be Emilys' forbear, and the other, a local girl who has been missing for a short while.Emily is given some old diaries from which she tries to piece together the puzzle of the old murders and to see if there is a connection to the present ones.
It's an intriguing premise and one which works very well, making a very readable story, full of twists and turns, with many of the locals having secrets which come to light in her investigations.

Summary: A Thrilling Book
Review: This book had a lot of suspense and will keep the reader guessing until the end. Although the book did contain alot of characters, which could be confusing, I enjoyed the book very much. The only problem was the ending. I felt that the book ended rather abruptly and the author didn't wrap up all of the loose ends. I closed the book feeling that I needed more insight on the main characters feelings and actions at the end. I do, however, recommend this book to anyone that enjoys Mary Higgins Clark.
