Description:

Four-year-old Laurie Kenyon is kidnapped, raped, and terrorized by Bic and Opal Hawkins, a pair of unrepentant hippies who finally release her after two years of captivity. Laurie is never the same afterwards, developing multiple personalities to deal with the trauma of the event. As a college student, Laurie finds herself standing over the dead body of one of her professors, unable to remember what happened. Did Laurie kill him, perhaps through one of her many personas? Or are there other suspects, such as Bic and Opal, who continue to haunt Laurie?

Effectively exploiting her canny knack for placing women and children in deadly peril, Clark has pulled out all the stops in her newest effort (after Loves Music, Loves to Dance ). As a child, Laurie Kenyon was kidnapped and abused by a creepy pair named Bic and Opal, and she developed complex multiple personalities as a result. Now she is a college senior and a prime suspect in the murder of an attractive male professor. Might one of her personalities have been responsible? If so, can her protective sister Sarah, now an ace lawyer? confusing as is--if she's prosecutor, she wouldn't be defending her sister , defend her successfully? And will Bic and Opal, now successful televangelists, manage to silence her if she seems likely to identify them as her childhood tormentors? The plotting is swift and slickly managed, with a genuinely surprising twist toward the end. Clark wastes no time on extraneous details of character and atmosphere, but the very skills that make her a popular fast read mean that readers who look for nuance, flavor and shading even in their suspense thrillers will find their cravings unsatisfied. Still, of its efficient, machine-made type, this is a suspenseful page-turner. 500,000 first printing; Literary Guild main selection; author tour. (May) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved
