However some credit is due for her wonderful suspense building. ”
“I got to page 22 and couldn't remember anything that happened in the 21 pages before it. I also had a problem with her writting style, and it kind of threw me off. ”

Even though Lacey fights it, she falls in love but has to run away from him to protect him when the assassin shows up in the town she is living in now. Even though she is in witness protection a well trained assassin tracks her down through her families' slips during polite conversation. The question is who is the one providing the murder and the person who has hired him with the information that is gathered from the family? ”

All together it is an exciting book, though rather cliche. A woman plays the main carector, finds out who the killer is, almost gets killed by the murderer, and an inch from death, is rescued by a hot male. ”
“alright ...”

Yes | No“Mary Higgins Clark sends chills down reader's spines with the story of Lacey Farrell, a rising star on the Manhattan real estate scene. One day, while showing a luxurious skyline co-op, Lacey is witness to a murder-and to the dying words of the victim...The dying woman is convinced that the attacker was after her dead daughter's journal-which Lacey gives to the police, but not before making a copy for herself. It's an impulse that later proves nearly fatal.
Placed in the witness protection program and sent to live in the Minneapolis area, Lacey must assume a fake identity, at least until the killer can be brought to trial. There she meets Tom Lynch, a radio talk-show host whom she tentatively begins to date-until the strain of deception makes her break it off. Then she discovers the killer has traced her to Minneapolis. Armed with nothing more than her own courage and clues from the journal, Lacey heads back to New York, determined to uncover who's behind the deaths of the two women-before she's the next casuality.”
