Where are the Children Now?

By Mary Higgins Clark and Alafair Burke

Thrilled to see this sequel to one of my favorite Mary Higgins Clark books, Where are the Children Now? did not disappoint.

​When the Queen of Suspense died in 2020, Where are the Children? (first published in 1975) was in its 75th edition in paperback and since 2005 has sold more than 1.5 million copies in all formats.

​Clark’s longtime collaborator and co-author of her Under Suspicion series, Alafair Burke, a New York Times bestselling author herself, perfectly honored the original story that launched Clark’s career.

Burke brings us the first book’s protagonist, Nancy Harmon, in the midst of a move after the death of her husband and her children, Mike and Melissa, all grown up and in the center of a life or death mystery of their own that echoes the family’s traumatic past. 
​Burke, in true Higgins Clark-fashion keeps the readers guessing with surprise plot twists until the very end.

I highly recommend Where are the Children Now?  for all Mary Higgins Clark fans and anyone one who enjoys thrilling suspense.
