In New York, Denver, Paris and Berlin, four people have died separately in apparent accidents. An important link between the victims rises up from their ashes: each was employed by Kingsley International Group (KIG), the world’s largest think tank, involved with major military strategy, worldwide communications, and environmental issues. Soon, two of the murdered men’s wives, Diane Stevens and Kelly Harris, find their own lives threatened. Terrified, suspicious of each other, and armed only with their wits and guile, the beautiful, terrified women become reluctant allies in a life and death game of cat-and-mouse. In his classic page-turning style that has become the standard, Sidney Sheldon combines smart, engaging characters and an intricate plot in a powerfully compelling and suspenseful novel sure to hit bestseller lists from coast to coast.
Sidney Sheldon was an Academy Award-winning American writer. His TV works spanned a 20-year period during which he created The Patty Duke Show (1963–66), I Dream of Jeannie (1965–70) and Hart to Hart (1979–84), but it was not until after he turned 50 and began writing best-selling novels such as *Master of the Game* (1982), *The Other Side of Midnight* (1973) and *Rage of Angels* (1980) that he became most famous.[1][1]
