I've been reading Mary Higgins Clark forever. Though I love Michael Connelly, Jeffrey Deaver, Patricia Cornwell, Karin Slaughter and John Sandford, sometimes I like a break from gritty reality and will read a novel by Mary Higgins Clark.
According to the Wall Street Journal, there "are some things you'll never find in a Mary Higgins Clark novel: an unmarried couple living together, a curse word, a body hacked to pieces. By today's standards, Ms. Clark's thrillers are quaint throwbacks, more in the Agatha Christie mold than the blood-curdling, titillating fare produced by best-selling writers such as James Patterson and Stieg Larsson."
The WSJ article has lots of interesting tidbits about the author. I wonder when she will be signing books at my local Wegmans?
