Publisher's summary

An addictive, edge-of-your-seat thriller filled with the hallmark elements that made New York Times best-selling author Sidney Sheldon - "the master of the story-telling game" (People) - an international legend: shocking twists, money, power, and betrayal involving an influential family and the beautiful and formidable woman at its center whose dark secrets can destroy them all.

The conservative party's newest superstar, Alexia De Vere has worked hard to realize her political ambitions. The brilliant and ruthless wife of wealthy aristocrat Teddy De Vere, Alexia relishes her power and the control it gives her to shape and destroy lives.

Yet success has also demanded sacrifice. Her daughter, Roxie, a bitter young woman confined to a wheelchair after a failed suicide attempt, blames Alexia for ruining her life. Alexia's dashing son, Michael, is risking the family's good name to jump-start his entrepreneurial dreams. Thankfully, Alexia has Teddy, her devoted husband who will stop at nothing to protect her.

But beneath Alexia De Vere's gilded life and formidable facade lie secrets that are ugly, dirty, and deadly. When long-buried mistakes of her youth begin to resurface, old hatreds are rekindled and Alexia finds herself on the brink of losing everything - her power, her family, and even her own life. Now the woman who rose so high is on the brink of a perilous fall. For when the tides of memory rise, the only thing that might save her is the truth....

Good

Predictable sometimes. Timely politics. A bit far-fetched, but it is fiction. But what's next for Michael though?

Good story. Surprised Me

I wasn't expecting the ending.. There were several twists and turns. I don't want to ruin it for anyone. So I'll just say it's a big surprise..

I thought I read all his books

OK what can I say, Like all Sidney Sheldon's books they are hard to get into, but just keep going. He really likes to give you a deep background of his caricatures and because he has many caricatures it takes awhile to get to the main story. once you get to the main plot of the book, you just want to keep going back to find out whats next.
I thought I had a good Idea who the murderer was because I watch a lot of mystery movies but I was wrong but not by much . I did not add in add the years up correctly. Remember you are introduced to the murder within the first few chapters.
I find it hard at first to follow whose who but it does get easier the more you read.
so if your a Sidney fan you will like it. on the last page he makes me think there might be a sequel.

Wow- so rough

I love Sidney Sheldon’s old stuff and started listening to it again so I figured I would try some of the new ones. This story is so terrible, painfully terrible. Everything about this is awful- stay far away!

Too Many Coincedents!

By the time you realize that everyone is connected in some way, you wonder why didn't someone connect the dots in the first place.
