This is my favourite Sidney Sheldon book.It is completely captivating till the end. The story goes like this: Elizabeth Roffe becomes the president of a multi-billion dollar pharmacutical maker after the death of her father.Elizabeth's four cousins force her to allow the company to go public but she refuses after coming to know that her father was murdered by one of her four cousins and eventually becomes the target of the murderer. Now all of Elizabeth's cousins have a reason for murder as they are all in need of money.The author tells us about the lives of the four Roffes and it was undoubtedtly my favourite part of the book. A must read for all of the Sidney Sheldon fans

This wonderful thriller is the story of Elizabeth Roffe, whose father has just died (or was he murdered?), leaving her heiress to a multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical maker. She takes over the reins of the company, with the help of Rhys Williams, a handsome but mysterious self-made man. Elizabeth's four quirky cousins and co-owners of the company each have shady pasts and need money, badly. They are pressuring her to allow the company to go public; she refuses, and becomes the target of an unknown assassin. This is a book you will not be able to put down. The story is full of fascinating flashbacks, detailing the often bizarre lives of all the Roffes: Alec from London, Helene from Paris, Anna from Berlin, and Ivo from Rome. Each one has a reason to want Elizabeth out of the way, and as the attempts on her life increase, the tension mounts until the killer is revealed in a truly frightening conclusion. Highly recommended for Sidney Sheldon fans and everyone who enjoys fast-paced stories full of action and memorable characters. This book was made into an all-star movie with Audrey Hepburn, Omar Sharif, and James Mason. Kona

I love this book so much it has been a keeper on my shelves for eighteen years. It has a few too many flashbacks in the beginning, but once you get into the story it is dynamite. I love the on-going story, the characters, and the fast-pace of the plot.

Another page-turner. How does Sheldon do it? Fast-paced, well-crafted, marvelous characters (Remember Donatella ?), and an edge-of-your-seat conclusion. Too bad the movie wasn't as good.

I COULDN'T PUT THE BOOK DOWN. I THOUGHT IT WAS ONE OF HIS BEST. I AM A SHELDON FAN & HAVE READ MOST OF HIS WORKS. I REALLY ENJOYED THIS PARTICULAR ONE. I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND IT.
