Nobody Knows

Nobody Knows The Dark Secrets.

Cassie Sheridan has all a television news reporter could want: an important beat in Washington D.C., and a skyrocketing career. But then, she makes a critical mistake. Suddenly, her career is in shambles.

Nobody Knows How Far A Murderer Will Go.

Cassie is transferred to Miami, separated from her family, her friends, and the power of Washington. But in an unsuspecting Gulf Coast town, a killer is watching...and waiting.

Nobody Knows Who WIll Be Next.

While covering a hurricane that's moving up the Florida Coast, Cassie meets eleven-year-old Vincent, who has just made a grisly discovery on the beach. In one week, Cassie traces the connection between Vincent's "treasure" and a secret operation in the dark shadows of sunny Sarasota-a story that has national significance and maybe, just maybe, will enable her to put her life back together. But nobody knows how fierce the coming storm will be. Nobody knows if a young woman's murderer will stop at nothing to keep the crime a secret. And nobody knows if Cassie will get out alive....

"Combines several can't-miss elements: a bevy of credible and well-drawn suspects, a sick child, and a hurricane...near-flawless plotting."

Publishers Weekly

Balancing compelling characters and intricate plotting in her trademark beach read style, Clark's suspense-filled latest finds 39-year-old television reporter Cassie Sheridan wracked with guilt over her part in a young rape victim's suicide. Named in a wrongful death suit and demoted to the Miami bureau after 15 years as a Washington, D.C., power player, Cassie rues the sacrifices that cost her her marriage and her relationship with her teenage daughter. While covering an impending hurricane, the newswoman befriends Vincent, a latchkey 11-year-old who's just discovered a severed hand on the sandy shores of Siesta Key. The author's own background as a writer and producer at CBS News, paired with reader Tunno's convincing rendition of downtrodden Cassie, imparts vocational verisimilitude. Tunno also skillfully narrates the na ve Vincent, who steals a ring from the corpse to help his impoverished family and unwittingly puts himself and Cassie in the path of a serial killer whose M.O. includes wearing a grease paint clown mask. But despite the professional unabridged recording and fast pacing, translation to audio doesn't fair as well when Tunno is called on to voice a pornography mogul or the killer; she's unable to capture the grittier, masculine aspects of the book. Based on the St. Martin's Press hardcover (Forecasts, July 1). (July) Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information.
