A killer turns a young family's dream holiday into an unfathomable nightmare in bestselling author Mary Higgins Clark's Remember Me.
Menley Nichols and her husband, Adam, a criminal attorney, rent a house on Cape Cod, in the hope of restoring their faltering marriage. The birth of their daughter, Hannah, has revitalized their relationship, but Menley has never stopped blaming herself for the accidental death of her two-year-old son. The serenity of the Cape promises a new start.

But when they visit Remember House, an eighteenth-century landmark with a sinister past, strange incidents force Menley to relive the accident that killed her son, and she begins to fear for Hannah's safety. Then Adam takes on a client suspected of murder when his wealthy young bride of only three months drowns in a storm—and the family is drawn into a rising tide of terror. A confrontation on a dark, rain-swept beach leads to a harrowing climax that only Mary Higgins Clark could have created.

      A tinge of the supernatural flavors the latest entry from our leading practitioner of the damsel-in-distress school of suspense. Just what is the mysterious presence that seems to haunt Menley Nichols and baby Hannah in their spectacular rented Cape Cod mansion? Menley is still trying to recover from the horror of her two-year-old son Bobby's death on the railroad crossing. Lawyer husband Adam is too busy dashing to and from New York, and defending a local hunk suspected of doing away with his wealthy bride, to be much help. And so the presence moves in on Menley, Rebecca style, with eerie middle-of-the-night sound effects and rocking cradles. As always with Clark, there are several plots going on at once, which are miraculously blended and resolved in the finale; people to watch out for here include a pretty waitress in a local inn and a real estate lady who is an old flame of Adam's. Clark opens herself to charges of excessive authorial legerdemain by employing many narrative points of view, including those of at least two guilty parties (without ever offering a clue as to their guilt), but that's a quibble. The denouement is reasonably pulse-pounding, if a little strained. All in all, it's a reliable enough outing for the countless Clark aficionados, though it seems, perhaps in sync with its historic setting, rather more old-fashioned than usual. 750,000 first printing; Literary Guild main selection; S & S audio.

      Adam and Manley try to recover from their young son's recent, violent death by renting an old house on Cape Cod with their baby daughter. Someone at the old house has a different agenda for them. Peiffer's narration focuses on the strength of the novel, moving the story forward. Her vocal distinctions are enough to differentiate the characters but don't dwell on accents or character traits. Peiffer's voice becomes more haunting as suspense builds. Even the sound of the sea is richly evoked in this great production. I.Z. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine

      Megan Gallagher gives a lively, chilling reading giving all the subtlety and menace for which Mary Higgins Clark is renowned. A strong program. R.F.W. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine

      Menley Nichols is haunted by the death of her young son, Bobby, killed when she was driving her automobile. She and her lawyer husband, Adam, hope they can help mend their emotional wounds and their marriage by spending a summer at Remember House, an eighteenth-century mansion on Cape Cod. But Remember House has a tragic past of its own, and the past and the present meet when a young heiress drowns and Adam is asked to defend the woman's husband. As always, Clark spins an intricate and suspenseful story that skillfully draws in listeners. Unfortunately, Alyssa Bresnahan provides little differentiation among the voices of the characters. Overall, her narration does little to enhance the story. A.C.P. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
