Overview

"Mary Higgins Clark combina un esc�ndalo financiero con una historia de enga�o y traici�n en esta apasionante novela escrita con la legendaria y escalofriante habilidad que la ha convertido en la reina del suspense. Ayudante de una reputada interiorista y madre de una ni�a de cuatro a�os, Lane Harmon est� acostumbrada a entrar en casas de ensue�o. Optimista de nacimiento, a Lane le resulta fascinante el mero hecho de poder echar un vistazo a estos mundos tan ajenos al suyo y disfruta con la recompensa de sobrepasar las expectativas de sus exigentes clientes. Cuando su jefa le encarga la redecoraci�n de una modesta finca sabe que es algo inusual. Pronto descubre que la casa pertenece a la mujer de un financiero de mala reputaci�n y ca�do en desgracia llamado Parker Bennett. Bennett desapareci� dos a�os atr�s mientras navegada en su velero por el Caribe, justo antes de que saliera a la luz que los fondos que gestionaba se hab�an esfumado. �Fue un suicidio o hab�a tramado su desaparici�n? Lane queda conmovida tras conocer a la se�ora Bennett, calmada y aparentemente convencida sobre la honradez de su marido, y al hijo, Eric, decidido a probar la inocencia de su padre. Lo que Lane no sabe es que cuanto m�s se acerca a los Bennett m�s pone en riesgo su vida y la de su hija. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION From #1 New York Times bestselling ""Queen of Suspense"" comes a thrilling novel about missing billions, a disgraced financier, and those determined to learn the truth at any cost... As the sole assistant to a famous upscale interior designer, Lane Harmon, mother to five-year-old Katie, is accustomed to visiting opulent homes around the tri-state area. A born optimist, Lane finds the glimpse into these gilded worlds fascinating, and loves the reward of exceeding the expectations of their often-demanding owners. When she is called to assist in redecorating a modest townhouse in Bergen County, she knows the job is unusual. Then she learns the home belongs to the wife of a notorious and disgraced financier named Parker Bennett. Parker Bennett has been missing for two years. He dropped out of sight just before it was discovered that the $5 billion dollars in the fund he had been managing had vanished. Bennett had gone out on his sailboat in the Caribbean. Was it suicide or had he staged his disappearance? The scandal around his name has not died down. His clients and the federal government all want to trace the money and find Bennett if he is still alive. Lane is surprised to find herself moved by Mrs. Bennett's calm dignity and apparently sincere belief in her husband's innocence. Gradually, Lane finds herself drawn to Eric, the Bennetts' son, who is similarly determined to prove that his father is not guilty. Lane doesn't know that the closer she gets to the Bennetts, the more she puts her life?and her daughter's life?in jeopardy. With the hair-raising storytelling skill that has made her America's ""Queen of Suspense,"" Mary Higgins Clark combines a headline-making financial scandal and a breathtaking tale of deception and betrayal into one of her finest novels."
