This suspense novel by Mary Higgins Clark is about twin
girls Kelly and Kathy who turn up missing on their birthday. When the parents Margret
and Steve return home from a party they find a ransom note with demands. If
they meet these demands the kidnapper will return Kelly and Kathy. The ransom is
paid for by the company Steve works for and the kidnapper only returns Kelly to
the parents. Kelly claims that Kathy is still alive and is scared while others believe
that she is dead. Margret believes that her twin daughters are communicating with
one another and convinces the police and FBI to continue the search for Kathy.
There are clues that Kathy is giving to Kelly in order to help her come home.
Will she be found dead or alive? Read to find out!
If you have a sister you will like this book, you can really
relate to the relationship that the sisters have with one another. And if you
have children you will be able to understand what Margret is going through. I
really enjoyed this book I think more because I am an identical twin. This book
made me tear up at some parts. It’s also interesting because there has been studies
that say twins in some way can communicate and feel what the other is feeling
which is what Mary Higgins Clark does in this book. My sister and I have never
been able to do any type of communication with one another and we have never
been able to feel each other’s pain, but that doesn’t mean that it cannot
happen.
So this book is about twin-telepathy?
ReplyDeleteYes, kind of the BUT story isn't based completely on twin telepathy. Its just how the sisters communicate in order for the police and FBI to find Kathy. Kathy gives clues to Kelly that no one believes and there are twists and turns because of the clues. The clues makes you really wonder who was behind the kidnapping.
ReplyDeleteVery interesting!
