Summary:

A pair of thrill-seeking boys crept into Palisades Park after dark to ride the Cyclone. When the roller coaster returned to the station, it was carrying only one child. What happened to the other would remain veiled in secrecy for the next three decades... As a rising Key News producer, Laura Walsh prepares video obituaries of famous people whose deaths seem imminent. But the macabre guessing game, and an eerily pre-taped obituary, plunge Laura into a chilling nightmare, when one of her famous colleagues unexpectedly tumbles to her death from a Manhattan rooftop. Now Laura must delve into the dead woman's secret past - a past that holds a shocking connection to her own, and to a missing boy. Desperate to uncover the truth and unmask a cunning killer, Laura soon realises with growing dread that the next obituary she should be writing is her own.

Summary

Reporter Laura Walsh's KEY News colleagues jokingly call her the "Angel of Death" because of her uncanny ability to have celebrities' obituaries ready to roll-even for people who are not expected to die. It seems someone's been "whispering" in Laura's ear, tipping her off to secrets about some of the rich and famous who don't have long to live.
When the remains of a 12-year old boy, missing for 30 years, are discovered buried where the legendary Palisades Amusement Park once stood, Laura sees her chance to move beyond the obits to "Hourglass," KEY News' answer to "60 Minutes." But when glamorous "Hourglass" host Gwyneth Gilpatric meets a devastating end, Laura's ready-to-air obit raises not only the suspicions of her co-workers, but of the police as well.
A tension-filled thriller from a rising star writer, "Let Me Whisper in Your Ear" is Mary Jane Clark's best book yet.
