a cry in the night by mary higgins clark

When Jenny finds the painting, the horror is detailed so well that I could see it perfectly. It’s a fast read, and although it starts off slow it does build momentum quickly.

Jenny’s feelings of being stalked, paired with her dawning realization that her children are in danger, comes across with visceral impact. Her new husband is manipulative, abusive and possibly something even worse. After this rich, handsome, and sensitive fellow whisks her off her feet to live in his mansion she discovers he’s far from the man she expected. She meets Erich, a man who seems to be her ultimate Prince Charming. In this wonderfully creepy book the main character, Jenny, is a struggling mother of two young girls. But this one still managed to give a good ride despite some very minor flaws. I didn’t expect it to be quite as good the second time. I’m happy to say it remains one after a second reading. When I picked it up to read it again I couldn’t recall the details of it – only that it was a keeper. I read this book years ago and remember it being a thrilling, suspenseful story. Definitely a terrifying and thrilling story! You have to read this to find out!Ĭlark writes mostly suspense that really only get seriously frightening at the end. What lies behind the walls of the cabin are deadly, horrible secrets. He never wants her out of sight, yet, he refuses to sleep in the same bed most of the time. Jenny holds an uncanny resemblance to Caroline, and Erich grows more and more possessive of her. Erich begins acting strangely, and speaks of his late mother Caroline whom he is unnaturally obsessed with it seems. But once there, Jenny discovers what a real eye-opener marriage can be. So suddenly, Jenny and the girls, along with Erich, moved to Minnesota to live in Eric's beautiful mansion. The two hit it off, and they marry quickly in spite of Jenny's friends' warnings and first impressions of Eric. I really enjoyed this book to the fullest, and found it hard to put down at all.Ī Cry in the Night is about Jenny MacPartland, a single mother of 2 little girls, meets Erich Krueger, the man of her dreams. I'm a picky person when it comes to what I read mostly, but after I finished this book I wanted to read more books by this author. This was the first book of Mary Higgins Clark that I read and it was so good that I'd kept reading her books.
