Product Description:
In a riveting thriller, worldwide bestselling suspense writer Mary Higgins Clark brilliantly weaves the mystery of twin telepathy into a mother's search for a kidnapped child, presumed dead.
When Margaret and Steve Frawley come home to Connecticut from a black-tie dinner in New York, their three-year-old twins, Kathy and Kelly, are gone. The police found the babysitter unconscious, and a ransom note from the 'Pied Piper' demands eight million dollars. Steve's global investment firm puts up the money, but when they go to retrieve the twins, only Kelly is in the car. The dead driver's suicide note says he inadvertently killed Kathy.
At the memorial, Kelly tugs Margaret's arm and says: 'Mommy, Kathy is very scared of that lady. She wants to come home right now.' At first, only Margaret believes that the twins are communicating and that Kathy is still alive. But as Kelly's warnings become increasingly specific and alarming, FBI agents set out on a desperate search.

Rating: - Unbelievable charaters make this just OK
While stuck in an airport for several hours I purchased this book to kill time before my connecting flight.
This was my first book by Mary Higgins Clark, and I've since purchased another which I haven't really been able to get into. "Two Little Girls in Blue" tells the story of the kidnapping of twin 3 year old girls who have some sort of mental telepathy special powers referred to as "twin talk" which at times (ok, usually) exceeds the bounds of believability and goes off into the ridiculous. ...

Rating:  - Great Read
Mary Higgins Clark is one of my favorites. This was a good story line and an easy read.
Rating:  - Just not cutting it...sorry
I've realized lately, after reading (or listening on audio CD) to several Mary Higgins Clark novels, that she is a fine enough story-teller, but she is very limited. She uses the same plot twists and she always comes back to same types of delivery:
Her characters reveal themselves inadvertently, but she neglects to realize that murderers, kidnappers, molesters etc. are not the most clear thinking individuals and they aren't capable of the insights she provides them with. It just isn't plausible. ... Read More
Rating: - Weak
Sorry, but this is probably one of the Clark's worst novels. The characters were weak and flat, and frankly there wasn't a mystery--just lots of suspense, and I'm afraid that you can't keep a book going on that.
