Title:- Bloodline

Author:- Sidney Sheldon

Number of Pages:- 409

Publisher:- HarperCollins Publishers India 

Genre:- Fiction/Thriller

Review:

I recently finished reading the book of one of my favorite authors. Every other book I pick of his, I am sure of finding something new in his works. Sidney Sheldon, the author of bloodline has done a remarkable job in this tale of love, lust and death.

The best part about the recent works I have read of his is that he starts with the life of the characters from their beginning and leaves no stone unturned in disclosing the life events of them. It becomes a loop of chained events that led to opening up the real suspense at the climax.

The crux of this story is that an owner of one of the largest pharmaceutical companies, Roffe and Sons dies in an accident. His daughter, the sole heir to his billion dollar fortune must take the entire responsibility of the gigantic empire. But the problem is someone wants her dead. The tale is absorbing, nail biting and very well crafted by the author. The series of events will take you on a roller coaster ride of ambition, intrigue and danger.     

Rating:

I would rate this book as 4.5/5 as the author has done his work impeccably. He is successful in maintaining the suspense and intrigue in the story.

The Best Laid Plans by Sidney Sheldon - a review

By
The Best Laid Plans by Sidney Sheldon Title :- BEST LAID PLANS Author :- Sidney Sheldon Number of Pages :- 344 Publisher :- Harper Collins Genre :- Suspense/Thriller My Verdict:-  I came across this book while browsing Sidney Sheldon's books. The one great thing about the author I like the most is that he plans and implement the plot very cleverly. He knows how to pull the readers attention and he is very much successful in building up the suspense throughout the storyline. This book is about jealousy, anger, ego revenge and all sorts of similar emotions you can think of. The plot is extremely well executed and Sidney Sheldon knows well when to open up the mystery. The conspiracy theory he brings in in this book is pretty much attention grabbing which will lead you to crave for more. It is about two characters primarily, Leslie Stewart who is a beautiful PR executive who learns through her experience that power is all she needed for the revenge. Oliver Russe...
