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(lǐng)帶晚餐會。當他們返回家中時，警察卻已經(jīng)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(fā)現(xiàn)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(jīng)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……

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(tǒng)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(jīng)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(fā)展之路。克拉克至今已經(jīng)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。
