- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5In this installment of the Under Suspicion series, Laurie investigates the murder of a prominent doctor. His parents are convinced the wife is responsible and insist that Laurie produce this crime on her television show. Clark and Burke weave an engaging ‘who done it’ story. This is an entertaining series that is coming to a close with only one more book.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Five years ago, the highly respected Dr Martin Bell was shot dead in his driveway. The perpetrator remained unknown. Now Martin's desperate parents ask Laurie Moran for help: she is to bring the mentally unstable widow, whom they believe to be the culprit, to justice. Laurie digs herself deeper and deeper into the harrowing connections and doesn't even notice that she herself has become the target of a stalker. A stalker whose hatred for her seems to know no bounds.I was also gripped by this volume of the series.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great read! Couldn’t put it down - was hooked from the first chapter to the last!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5You Don’t Own Me by Mary Higgins Clark and Alafair Burke is a 2018 Simon & Schuster publication.A multi-layered cold case mystery!The latest cold case for Laurie Moran’s popular program, “Under Suspicion” involves the unsolved murder of Dr. Martin Bell, a prominent physician. Martin’s parents are convinced his troubled wife, Kendra, was behind his murder and they want Laurie to feature his case on her show. What they don’t know is that Kendra has already been approached about cooperating with them, but she refused to participate. But, after a second visit from Laurie and her partner, Ryan Nichols, Kendra is convinced it might be in her best interest to go along with it.Meanwhile, Laurie and Alex are making wedding plans and looking for the perfect place to begin their new lives together, while also celebrating Alex’s appointment to a Federal Judgeship position. But the reader knows something they don’t- Laurie is being followed and her stalker has murder on his mind…I’ve followed this series from the beginning and I have loved every single installment. I will say the last chapter in the series was maybe the weakest one and I was just little concerned about the series running out of steam. However, I needn’t have worried. This latest edition was one of the darkest and most layered cold cases so far. Most of you have heard me say that of all the various tropes in the mystery/thriller categories, cold cases are my favorite. Naturally, this series would appeal to me on that basis alone. Add in the fact that it is co-written by two of the best female mystery/suspense writers out there, and you have an unbeatable combination. It seems every character in this story has an explosive secret, one that could cast suspicions on them. Even the murder victim has secrets, secrets that could give someone a nice motive for murder. This installment has some really nice and well-timed twists, which kept me on my toes and guessing all the way to the bitter end. There was a lot going on in this story, with Alex, the stalker, and the murder case, but these clever and seasoned authors brought all the threads together for a rousing and suspenseful conclusion. I can’t wait to see what these ladies will bring us next in this series! 4 stars

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I think the books written by Mary Higgins Clark and Alafair Burke get better with each one. I really enjoyed this one, and I did not guess the ending until almost the very end. I love Mary Higgins Clark but I can definitely see Ms Burke’s touch on these books. Great series!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I was a little bored at first, but the story kicked in and it was good. I don't know that I liked the main character in an earlier story, but I'm coming around lol.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5You Don't Own Me is a suspenseful novel that takes place in modern day New York. The characters are believable. The story is believable. The book keeps its feeling from beginning to end. All storylines in the book come to a natural not rushed conclusion. It is a very good book and deserves the four star rating that is awarded here.
