| Plot Summary of Stillwatch |
|---|
"Pat Traymore moves back to Washington D.C. to jumpstart her career by doing an expose' on a famous female Senator and to find the truth behind her parents' brutal deaths. I found this to be a good read but definitely not one of Mary Higgins Clark's best. It has some twist and turns but nothing significant. "
