Sidney Sheldon's romance-mystery Bloodline. This was a GREAT book and really hooks you from the first page. I love that in a book, if I get interested by the first few pages and really want to read more, then it's definitely great. The mystery will really leave you guessing till the last second and the love scenes are just what they should be. GREAT book.

This book interwined many side stories in with the main storyline which made the book a fabulous read. Sheldon threw twists and turns and the reader making it virtually impossible to put this page turner down.

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.

I read this by desparation. It was one of those time I was without a read and my daughter had this book in a bedside basket. Everyone knows who
Sydnet Sheldon is and he is an amazing story teller. So many famous authors are boring but every Sheldon book I have read are a fast paced read with a surprise ending which I didn't except. Enjoy!

A tale that captures the reader on the first page and keeps him glued....until the very last gasp, because he builds conflict on conflict and casts of flamboyant, colorful, richer-than-Croesus characters who leap from bed to boardroom to continents and capitals with the ease of a trapeze artist.......
