Great Book
Mary Higgins Clark's personal story is as fascinating as her fiction. What a resourceful woman. A young woman raising a family on her own, she showed resourcefulness, courage, good sense, with a healthy sprinkling of humor. A friend whose parents grew up in Brooklyn enjoyed the book as well and said it brought up many memories of stories her parents told her. Great book!
