"Death Wears a Beauty Mask and Other Stories, is a collection of stories from Mary Higgins Clark." according to Shelly. Death Wears a Beauty Mask and Other Stories, is a collection of stories from Mary Higgins Clark. I enjoyed other books in her “Under Suspicion” series so was drawn to this book.The star of this collection is the title story – Death Wears a Beauty Mask. The fashion world, beauty products and murder collide. One thing that held my interest was the sister theme throughout the story. The main character, Janice, looks up to her older sister, and that resonated with me. I was riveted to the page turn, feeling the sisterly bond. This story is well thought out, riveti. "Disappointed in this one" according to S. Brown. I have read all of Mary Higgins Clark books so was really looking forward to getting this one. I am surprised by all the good reviews. the first story was ok but the others were more like outlines. I was not impressed at all I finally got tired of the book and did not finish it. not happy that i spent that much on this collection of outlines for books
