The Melody Lingers On by Mary Higgins Clark MYS Cla

I have read all of Ms. Clark's books so I wasn't about to pass on this one.  Her books are always fast reads and I just enjoy the ride.   Lane Harmon has an enchanting four-year-old daughter but she has plenty of pain in her life.  Her father died in an accident when she was seven.  Fate dealt her another blow when her husband was killed in a car accident when Lane was pregnant.  She has tried to get her life going forward and works as an interior designer for Glady, a tough boss who is good enough at her job that she is invited to redecorate the homes of the rich and famous.

This time they are called to the home of the Countess de la Marco.  The widowed Countess is ready to spend millions on the project.  She casually mentions that she was lucky that her husband had taken his money out of the Bennett Fund.  Parker Bennett had made billions taking advantage of many people.  When his wrecked boat was found there was no body - and there wasn't any money left either.  Glady had decorated Bennett's home years ago.  Now Parker's son Eric has approached Glady to see if she would be willing to help his mother pick out the furniture she should move to her condo.  The good stuff has been taken by the State to help repay her husband's victims.  Working with Glady, Lane becomes acquainted with Eric and is rather taken by him.  He swears he had nothing to do with his father's fraud - and the law has found no connection either.  Are the mother-son duo telling the truth or do they have something to hide?!
