A great story line and a quick read, but overly rushed and unbelievable court proceedings.

Another Sheldon enjoyable non-stop read.
I did find that it sometimes felt like I was reading his initial outline-sketch for his planned novel, instead of the final detailed finished product....perhaps that's because he was trying to cram a lot of stuff/plot into a finite number of pages...

This is a great read....
I enjoyed this book. I rate this book as from 1-5 as a 4. It is about 3-women suspected of committing a series of brutal murders. It based on actual medical evidence.
Good book, keeps you guessing till the end
This book kept my attention. It kept me in such suspense, I couldn't put it donw!
Someone was following her. She had read about stalkers. She had no idea who it could be. She was trying desperately not to panic, but lately her sleep had been filled with unbearable nightmares, and she awakened each morning with a feeling of impending doom. Thus begins the tale in this novel. Ashley, Toni, and Alette, 3 beautiful young women, are suspected of committing a series of brutal murders. The police will make an arrest that leads to the trial of the century and a defense based on an authentic piece of medical evidence. This novel earned Sheldon the title "Master of the Unexpected."
Spine chilling tale.
Murder Trial based on actual medical evidence. Bestselling author. Almost 300 million copies of his books worldwide.
Ashley Patterson is a brainy and gorgeous "computer whiz" with a cushy job at a fast-growing start-up computer graphics company in Silicon Valley. She is lonely, shy, and lives a life that is unfulfilling to her. She is also absolutely convinced that someone is stalking her. Toni Prescott and Alette Peters are both co-workers of Ashley's, however the similarities end there.
Toni is a saucy, British vixen with a penchant for Internet dating and dancing at discotheques. 'La bella Italiana' Alette is an aspiring artist who prefers quiet, dreamy weekends spent in the arms of handsome painters. Reminiscent of high school, Toni and Alette do their best to keep Ashley out of their cool clique, but find it extremely difficult after a string of murders irrevocably binds their lives together. Toni, Alette and Ashley know virtually nothing about each other until all three women are inexplicably linked into a murder investigation that will lead to one of the most bizarre trials of the century.
This book is a work of fiction, but is based on several actual cases. I really enjoyed this book and found it to be an interesting read. I was definitely hooked by the plot and wanted to discover what happened next. The book was laden with such realistic details that I learned plenty of information about certain subjects that I never knew. I give this book an A+! and am eager to read more books by Sidney Sheldon in the future.

This was the January 2012 pick in my online book club, The Reading Cove.
Ashley Patterson thinks she's being stalked. Lots of people are turning up dead, stabbed and castrated. Everything builds up to a shocking revelation, and a high-stakes trial.
I'm a dedicated Sidney Sheldon fan, but I was disappointed in TELL ME YOUR DREAMS. It's one of his later books (1990's) and just doesn't hold a candle to books like MASTER OF THE GAME, A STRANGER IN THE MIRROR, THE OTHER SIDE OF MIDNIGHT, THE SANDS OF TIME, and others by Sidney.
It had its moments, but in the end, it didn't have the Sidney Sheldon magic I got used to. Maybe I'd have liked it more if I'd never read one of his books before. C+

Not one of my favorite Sheldon books but a good thriller that will keep you turning the pages.
A very good thriller!
Sheldon uses his proven storytelling skill to dramatize the tormented world of an emotionally disturbed character filled with murderous rage...the chilling ending will haunt even psychiatrists.
Another Wonderful Sheldon novel! Enjoy :)
Ashley, elegant yet haunted... Toni, sultry as well as vivacious.. Alette, lovely and totally with out conceit...three beautiful young women suspected of committing a series of horrifying murders. One of the most bizarre murder trials of the century is about to begin-and reveal an astounding, startling piece of medical evidence almost impossible to believe. Sweeping from London to Rome, from Quebec to San Francisco, this latest tale from the world's reigning master storyteller is so much more than a mystery: It is a searching, riveting and finally, triumphant foray into the dark, wild depths of the human heart.

Really very, very good!
Pretty predictable after the first few chapters, but a good, quick read none the less.
Loved Sydney Sheldon!
Sidney Sheldon is one of the best writers. This is his newest book and I accidentally bought two copies, so it is brand new and unread.
I guess you have to be a Sidney Sheldon fan to like this book. I thought it was without substance although the story was good.
