Publisher's summary

A tragic kidnapping... the mystery of twin telepathy... a mother's search for a child, presumed dead.

Hours after throwing a third birthday party for their twins Kathy and Kelly in their Connecticut home, Margaret and Steve Frawley return home from a dinner in New York to discover the police in the house, their daughters missing, and an eight million dollar ransom note. The Frawleys meet the kidnapper's demands, but the abandoned car they're led to contains only Kelly, the body of the driver, and a suicide note, saying he had inadvertently killed Kathy and dumped her body in the ocean.

At the private memorial Mass for Kathy, Kelly tugs Margaret's arm and says that her sister Kathy "wants to come home right now." More unexplainable occurrences indicate that Kelly is in touch with Kathy, but no one except Margaret believes that Kathy is still alive. As Kelly's warnings become increasingly specific and alarming, however, FBI agents set out on a search for the kidnappers as Kathy's life hangs by a thread.

Delving into the well-documented but still unexplained phenomenon of twin telepathy, worldwide #1 best seller Mary Higgins Clark takes us deep into the minds of her characters while lifting us to the heights of suspense.

Use of male and female readers!

I liked the fast pace of the readers but it would be terrific if the reading was done by a man when a man spoke and a woman when a female voice was needed!

Short... but not short enough!

I cut my "mystery/thriller" teeth on Mary Higgins Clark's books. When I first started reading, she was certainly my "go-to". I have evolved, I suppose, and I am not sure if I have changed that much or if the book was that bad - but I did not like this book! The idea was ok... the twin telepathy thing, etc., but the story falls flat. Not to mention, for a while I wondered if this was the work of a well loved author - or a missing excerpt from "World's Dumbest Criminals"!! It may have been the narration, it made the entire thing just pretentious!! The performance of the mom was laughable!! If you just have to add this to your library... I recommend the text version, not the audio!

Captivating!
