"A fitting sendoff that modulates as smooth as butter from celebration to shock to detection to ticking-clock suspense." -Kirkus Reviews
"A fast-paced read that will surely be snapped up by fans of both authors." -Booklist
"With a dazzling plot filled with misdirection and surprise, a cast of familiar and first-time characters, Clark's talent for romantic suspense and Burke's for edginess, Piece of My Heart jangles the nerves as it touches the spirit.The death of a prolific and talented author, no matter the genre, leaves fans bereft. But as we mourn Mary, let us also hail Mary for six decades of achievement, hundreds of late nights and thousands of pleasurable hours." - Fredericksburg Freelance Star
