About this listen
Mary Higgins Clark is a master storyteller who keeps her readers and listeners spellbound. Now, in her first two published stories, written in the 1950s, she draws on her career as a young Pan American Airways flight attendant to create these tales of adventure and intrigue.
In Stowaway, a courageous flight attendant helps a desperate young man of the underground escape the Soviet police.
In Milkrun, a flight attendant becomes immersed in a web of deception when she serves as a courier for an important document - only to find it's been stolen during the flight.
Stowaway and Milkrun are two edge-of-your-seat classics that could only come from Mary Higgins Clark.

Story
At the heart of Mary Higgins Clark's stunning new novel of suspense is a brutal murder: that of Gary Lasch, a respected and successful young Greenwich, Connecticut, doctor and hospital and HMO head. He was found dead at his desk at home, his skull crushed by a blow with a Remington bronze sculpture, a prized piece from his art collection. The news strikes Greenwich society like a thunderbolt - as does the news that Molly Carpenter Lasch, the doctor's young wife, has been arrested for her husband's murder.
