While My Pretty One Sleeps - Mary Higgins Clark, 1989
This book kept me guessing - a classic whodunit. Neeve Kearny, NYPD Commissioner's daughter owns an upscale fashion boutique and takes a special interest in her clients. Her Uncle Sal is a well-known fashion designer loaned her the money to get started. Her father, who is retired, put away a mobster, who he believes killed his wife and thinks is now after his daughter. A famous columnist and client of Neeve's is dead. WOW are you dizzy yet?
Clark does a great job of weaving multiple stories together so you think this person did it because...no this one did it because they had a better motive. It is not until the last few pages is the real master-mind behind the murders and attempted murders revealed.
A few times I got confused and had to re-read sections, but that was probably more to my inattention than Clark's writing. I enjoy a good mystery that I can't figure out, it makes the read fun.
