From Mary Higgins Clark, America’s bestselling “Queen of Suspense,” comes a chilling story of murder that reaches the heights of suspense while exploring the depths of the criminal mind as one woman searches for the killer of her sister—and one man tries to prove his innocence. Ellie Cavanaugh was seven years old when her older sister was murdered near their home in New York’s Westchester County. It was young Ellie’s tearful testimony that put Rob Westerfield, the nineteen-year-old scion of a prominent family, in jail despite the existence of two other viable suspects. Twenty-two years later, Westerfield, who maintains his innocence, is paroled. Determined to thwart his attempts to pin the crime on another, Ellie, an investigative reporter for an Atlanta newspaper, returns home and starts writing a book that will conclusively prove Westerfield’s guilt. As she delves deeper into her research, however, she uncovers horrifying facts that shed new light on her sister’s murder. With each discovery she comes closer to a confrontation with a desperate killer.

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“After [more than 20] bestselling suspense novels, you might think Clark could not improve. You’d be wrong…A superb suspense story.”  Tulsa World
“[Clark’s] twenty-first novel of intrigue is her best in years, a tightly woven, emotionally potent tale of suspense and revenge…With its textured plot, well-sketched secondary characters, strong pacing and appealing heroine, this is Clark at her most winning.”  Publishers Weekly
“Maxwell depicts Ellie as self-confident and assertive, using compelling, rapid speech patterns to emphasize horrifying discoveries in Rob’s past and Ellie's fear as her life is repeatedly threatened. Maxwell and Clark work well together, producing a nail-biting page-turner.”  AudioFile
“Less mystery, more raw pain, and a tough-cookie heroine who tells her own story make this a real departure for Clark, and one that carries more conviction than her usual glossy fantasies.”  Kirkus Reviews
“Slowly building in atmosphere and suspense, Daddy’s Little Girl is another top-notch read from the reigning queen of suspense. Fans will devour this delicious nail biter in one sitting.” RT Book Reviews (4½ stars, Top Pick!)
