Title : The Watch House - Mary Higgins Clark - book

Summary :

Wanting to escape the terrible secret of her past, Nancy changed her name, appearance and hair color, before leaving the West Coast and settling in Cape Cod where she married Ray Eldredge in the hope of finally being able to live normally again.

Seven happy years have passed in her new home with her husband and two beautiful children, Michael and Missy.

Then, one morning, an article appears in the regional newspaper about a murder trial that has caused a lot of ink to flow in California and illustrated by the photo of a young woman who strangely resembles Nancy. That same day, Michael and Missy mysteriously disappear. The past and the present become inexorably linked. Has Nancy lost her mind after reading the article that brutally plunges her back into a past she desperately tried to escape? That's what the police fear. And no one in town knows anything about this stranger who holds the lives of her children in his hands.

The Watch House distils a "steel" suspense and sets up a puzzle as perverse as it is exciting, an action even more bouncy than in the famous The Night of the Fox.

A real masterstroke!
