Before leaving for a black-tie affair in New York City, Margaret and Steve Frawley celebrate the third birthday of their twin girls, Kathy and Kelly, with a party at their new home in Ridgefield, Conn. Later that night, when Margaret can't reach the babysitter, she contacts the Ridgefield police. The frantic couple return home to find the children missing and a ransom note demanding $8 million. Though the Frawleys meet all the conditions, only Kelly turns up in a car along with a dead driver and a suicide note saying that Kathy has died. But Kelly's telepathic messages from her sister keep telling her differently, and Margaret won't give up hope. Even the most skeptical law enforcement officers and the FBI, who pursue suspects from New York to Cape Cod, begin to believe Kelly is on to something. Clues from ordinary people lead to a riveting conclusion. Rivaling Clark's debut-Where Are the Children?-this suspense thriller is certain to send terror into the heart of any parent.
Margaret 和 Steve夫婦在慶祝完雙胞胎女兒三歲生日之后，便去了紐約參加黑領帶晚餐會。當他們返回家中時，警察卻已經等候多時，并告知他們的雙胞胎女兒失蹤了，房間里還留下一張要求八百萬贖金的紙條。盡管Steve答應了綁匪的種種要求并支付了贖金，卻只有Kelly被發現藏在一間廢棄餐館后的汽車里。司機死于槍擊，同時又留下了一張紙條，上面寫著Kathy死了，尸體已經扔到大海里。
但雙胞胎之間的精神感應卻沒間斷過，Kelly源源不斷的收到Kathy傳給她的信息，這也使Margaret越來越堅信Kathy依然活著……
About the Author
Mary Higgins Clark, America's queen of suspense, and her daughter, bestselling author Carol Higgins Clark, have followed last year's bestselling Deck the Halls with a heartwarming tale that combines the charm of the classic movie it's Wonderful Life with unexpected menace.
瑪麗o希金斯o克拉克被稱為“美國懸疑小說之后”。克拉克的第一部長篇小說是美國總統華盛頓的傳記，但銷路甚差。她于是改變寫作方向，運用自己的親身特殊經驗、加上無窮的想象力，改寫懸疑推理小說；第二本小說《孩子們到哪里去了》一舉成名，使她從此確立了懸疑推理小說的發展之路。克拉克至今已經出版27本小說，作品總銷售量在美國已達7千萬冊。她在2000年獲得了美國懸疑推理小說最高榮譽愛倫坡獎的"推理大師賞"獎項。
