In this spellbinding thriller by worldwide bestselling suspense writer Mary Higgins Clark, the murder of a Broadway star ignites a shocking series of deadly events.

After famous actress Natalie Raines is discovered in her home, dying from a gunshot wound, the police immediately suspect her theatrical agent and jealous soon-to-be-ex-husband, Gregg Aldrich. However, no charges are brought against him until two years later, when a career criminal suddenly claims Aldrich had tried to hire him to kill her.

The case becomes a plum assignment for the attractive thirty-two-year-old assistant prosecutor, Emily Wallace. She spends long hours preparing for the trial and, unaware of a seemingly well-meaning neighbor’s violent past, gives him a key to her home to care for her dog.

The high-profile trial makes headlines, threatening to reveal personal matters about Emily, such as the fact that she had a heart transplant—especially when she experiences eerie sentiments that defy all reason and continue even after the jury decides Gregg Aldrich’s fate. But little does she know, now her own life is at risk...
