Sidney Sheldon Genius Story Teller
I cannot get enough of Sydney Sheldon s books. His plots are unbelievable. Tilly bagshaw is a pale shadow of his genius. I have read 6 of his books in a week.

Just ok.
My Mother selected this book for me to read aloud to her. Not one of my favorites. Too slow and predictable. I have read a lot of Sidney Sheldon, but was not too crazy about this one.

Not his Best
I absolutely love Sidney Sheldon novels but this one was not his greatest. Good read but I expected better from Mr. Sheldeon.

Page Turner!
A great thriller. When I was reading this, my mind was continuously wondering what was going to happen next as the events were described really well. The story revolved between multiple settings and different countries. All were presented in a subtle manner. Sometimes, the events were predictable but for the most part, I was kept on edge of my seat. Worth a read.

Brillant as Always
I love Sidney Sheldon and this is just one of many great reads. The storylines are wonderful, the characters defined and the writing flows. What more can I say? I recommend this.

A glossy, fast paced thriller
Although this book was written 30 odd years ago it's still a compelling page turner. Writers like Sidney Sheldon were masters at writing this type of glossy thriller. If you enjoy a fast paced thriller set in Cold War Europe this one's for you. You really get a sense of Bucharest and life in the diplomatic service. I kind of guessed who the killer was early but it was still a great read and highly recommended. A bit violent in places and some swear words. Also a few sex scenes. Thought I'd add that for those who may not like those things.
