Complete List of Mary Higgins Clark Books

Complete List of Mary Higgins Clark Books Mary Higgins Clark began writing short stories as a way to supplement her familys income. After her husband died in 1964, she wrote radio scripts until her agent persuaded her to try to write a novel. When her first novel- a fictional biography of George Washington- didnt sell well, she turned to writing mystery and suspense novels. More than 100 million books later, it is safe to say she made the right choice. All of her suspense novels- some written with her daughter Carol Higgins Clark- have become bestsellers. Mary Higgins Clark is the acknowledged queen of psychological suspense. Here is a list of the books and stories she has written over the years. 1968-1989: The Early Years After the lackluster sales of the fictional biography Aspire to the Heavens, Higgins Clark faced several family and financial crises before finally delivering her second book Where Are the Children? to her publisher. The novel became a bestseller and Higgins Clark had no financial worries for the first time in many years. Two years later, Higgins Clark sold A Stranger Is Watching for $1.5 million. The litany of work that would result in her title The Queen of Suspense was firmly underway.
