The Last Time I Saw You/ Liv Constantine/ 308 pgs

If you are looking for a book similar to Mary Higgins Clark's suspense novels, this is the one for you. Wealthy people, family dysfunction, murder, revenge, the ingredients are all there. Dr. Kate English's mother has been murdered just before Christmas. All of the suspects are laid out neatly in the first few chapters--Kate's possibly unfaithful husband, Kate's father who had an argument with her mother, Kate's estranged best friend, Kate's nanny. To top it off, the alleged killer is sending Kate threatening messages and dead animals. I wish we had seen a glimpse of Kate at work because I found it hard to believe she's really a doctor. The twist at the end doesn't really add to the story. If you haven't already read Constantine's first book, The Last Mrs. Parrish, I would recommend that over this one.
