The Color of Your Eyes, Mary Higgins Clark

Five years ago, Timmy witnessed his father's murder. Before fleeing, the assassin, with strikingly blue eyes – something the boy remembers clearly – told him: "Tell your mother she's next." Since then, the child and his mother, Laurie, have lived under this threat. The young woman, a famous TV producer, is launching a shocking series about unsolved cases. The first episode revisits the "Gala of Laureates" case: twenty years ago, Betsy Powell and her husband organized a big party to celebrate their daughter's graduation. That same night, Betsy died of suffocation. As they prepare to reconstruct the crime scene in the splendid Powell mansion, someone with dazzling blue eyes spies on Laurie from the shadows... A thrilling closed-door mystery then begins.

A delightful work. The mistress of suspense proves she has retained her skill. Catherine Balle, Le Parisien.
