The Theme of Weep No More My Lady is MURDER! Murder, murder, murder, murder and more murder.
Everything and everyone is getting murdered! Leila LaSalle begins the theme of this book as she is thrown off her balcony at her New York City penthouse. As you keep reading, it seems as if after you meet some characters, boom! They're gone. A murder! No one knows who did it either, until the very end.
Frank Sinatra's song Weep No More My Lady should be the 'Theme' Song of this book! (lyrics) :) http://sinatrasonglyrics.com/getsong.php?songid=1206

The Plot of Weep No More Lady
Leila LaSalle has been murdered? By her fiance, Ted Winters?
Mary Higgins Clark tells the story of an unfortunate woman, Elizabeth LaSalle whose sister is killed by none other than Leila's fiance! Elizabeth is meeting with a prosecution attorney, to become a witness against Ted Winters in the upcoming trial. Stressed out and dealing with all of her emotions, Elizabeth LaSalle gets invited to a spa, owned by close friends. Elizabeth takes up this offer and without knowing, she throws her own life into play.
Unfortunately, it seems as if Ted Winters is at the spa at the same time as Elizabeth (isn't that just a coincidence!) weeks before the trial. Elizabeth learns that while Leila lived, she had a stalker. Becoming a 'Nancy Drew detective' Elizabeth tries all she can do to figure out who this stalker is and if they maybe killed her sister.
Maybe it was that Cheryl Manning, the actress who was up for the role her sister got, or is it maybe Min or Helmut von Schreiber, close friends and the spa owners?
Who knows? You'll have to read the book to find out!

Queen of Suspense's Weep No More, My Lady
Mary Higgins Clark wrote the book "Weep No More, My Lady", which was published in 1987. As I started reading this book, I imagined how it would feel if one of my sister's were pushed off of their balcony by their fiance, who I was also close to. I would feel betrayed, horrified and I would feel worthless. The first chapter was very intriguing and I didn't want to stop reading it because I really wanted to know what was going to happen.
Overall, Weep No More My Lady is a great mystery, because it can lead you down the wrong path sometimes of who murdered Leila LaSalle, and it will surprise you at the end.
