A collection of short stories by the "Queen of Suspense" features her first published short story, "Stowaway." - Simon and Schuster
A collection of short stories from the #1 New York Times bestselling âQueen of Suspenseâ Mary Higgins Clark, including the never-before-published novella Death Wears a Beauty Mask.
From Clarkâs first-ever published story (1956âs âStowawayâ), to classic tales featuring Alvirah and Willy, My Gal Sunday and many more, Death Wears a Beauty Mask and Other Stories gives readers the chance to revisit the short story highlights from the âQueen of Suspense.â The jewel of this collection is the novella showcasing the dazzling and dangerous world of high fashion in 1970s New York City: Death Wears a Beauty Mask, which Mary began in 1974 and put aside to write Where Are the Children, the book that launched her career. Mary returned to Death Wears a Beauty Mask nearly forty years later and the result is spectacular.
Featuring the same chills and heart-pounding drama weâve come to expect from a Mary Higgins Clark title, and including an exclusive authorâs introduction, Death Wears a Beauty Mask and Other Stories is a spine-tingling read and glimpse into the evolution of the remarkable career of the âQueen of Suspense.â
