Alvirah Meehan, one of Mary Higgins Clark’s most beloved characters, returns in these dazzling, intertwined tales of sleuthing and suspense. Alvirah, the former cleaning lady who struck it rich in the lottery, made her first appearance in Weep No More, My Lady. Now, with her devoted mate, Willy, the ever-resourceful Alvirah delves into crime-solving on a grand scale — and with her own inimitable … inimitable style.
Among their many adventures, Alvirah and Willy find a dead actress in their Central Park South condominium upon their return from London in “The Body in the Closet.” Needing a break from the big city, they escape to Cape Cod — only to meet a would-be heiress framed for murder in “Death on the Cape.” When Alvirah and Willy seek the tranquillity of the Cypress Point Spa, it’s the perfect getaway — until a jewel thief turns up in “The Lottery Winner.” Back in Manhattan, the search for a neighbor’s missing newborn makes for a suspense-filled Christmas in “Bye, Baby Bunting.”

Loved the Lottery Winner, was suspenceful and intriguing all thru the story.
It was alright, nothing exciting!
Great Read!!
Good read, i love mary higgins Clark
Introduction of a “new” character that features in other stories.
One of my favorites
I didn’t like this book. The main character, Alvirah Sheehan, annoys me. I kept wishing the bad guy would get her before she got him.
Love Alvirah and her husband. Enjoyable characters! Would highly recommend.
Love Mary Higgins Clark
Mary Higgins Clark has long been one of my favorites. This book did not disappoint. There was plenty of action in each of the five stories, and the characters were very likeable.
This was a fun and entertaining read.
Always a pleasure to read Mary Higgins Clark
Best MHClark book ever. Love Alvirah and hubby
Love the characters, and love the fact that we are them in subsequent books. Not deep but a fun read with great characters!
Easy to read – a bit cheesy……….
This book seems to be a collection of short simple mysteries. No character development (they all seems to be dolts), very little plot, terrible writing.
Several stories.
This book is an easy read. It’s great for times that you are a bit distracted. It’s fun and the character and plot are easy to follow.
Always enjoy Mary Higgins Clarke
A quick light murder mystery with delightful main character.
