Book by Sheldon Sidney

A propos du livre

Revue de presse

One of the best novel i have read. The way sidney sheldon has described the whole story cannot be described in words. This is the very first novel of sidney sheldon i have completed and it took me about 1 month but really worth the money. every page i turned was a suspense. No Second thoughts, Go for it straight Away. --Ashish Bajaj Apr 17, 2015

The book starts with an emotional description of misfortunes and hardships faced (perhaps the success sentiment of Sidney Sheldon from my experience of him from reading Rage of Angels) by Jamie Mc. Gregor. The book boasts of the family line of a Ninety year old wealthy 'Master of Game' named Kate Blackwell as the lead, but other characters are equally or may be have higher importance in the story line. The events associated with several characters of the book are loosely connected and one may not feel that the tale as whole may not come under one umbrella. The narration and characterization was a pleasure to read --Shashank Pedamallu Feb 24, 2013

Master of the Game is one of the finest works of Sidney.A very captivating plot to read.The female protagonist plays a perfect master-mind.Towards the end,the reader is filled with excitement that 'what next is she going to do now?' Its a '10 on 10' and a must read book if one is a hardcore Sidney fan.. --yakata sharma Aug 19, 2012

Présentation de l'éditeur

One of Sidney Sheldon s most popular and bestselling titles, repackaged and reissued for a new generation of fans.

Kate Blackwell is one of the richest and most powerful women in the world. She is an enigma, a woman surrounded by a thousand unanswered questions. Her father was a diamond prospector who struck it rich beyond his wildest dreams. Her mother was the daughter of a crooked Afrikaaner merchant. Her conception was itself an act of hate-filled vengeance.

At the extravagent celebrations of her ninetieth birthday, there are toasts from a Supreme Court Judge and a telegram from the White House. And for Kate there are ghosts, ghosts of absent friends and of enemies. Ghosts from a life of blackmail and murder. Ghosts from an empire spawned by naked ambition...

Sidney Sheldon is one of the most popular storytellers in the world. This is one of his best-loved novels, a compulsively readable thriller, packed with suspense, intrigue and passion. It will recruit a new generation of fans to his writing.
