Bloodline: Feel the Thrill in each Page

Last Night I was reading Bloodline- another great piece of work by Sidney Sheldon. I love her work. There is a certain charm, charisma and ease with which she binds her stories. Blood line is indeed a gripping story and an interesting read. If you love reading thrillers then you have no way out but to let yourself lose in this engaging plot. When I was reading the book I cannot stop, eat or sleep. It was 4:30 in the morning and all was quiet in the part of the city I live except for sounds of some heavily loaded trucks on the highway and I was leaning on my back with the book on my hand, tensed and at the same time excited to know what will happen next- is Elizabeth going to die? Whose that killer who wants to destroy Roffe and Sons for his or her own benefits?

The story was really gripping, the characters were engaging. However, I did not like the snuff film part, it somehow did not fit into the entire story. To me it was an unnecessary addition...the plot was already thick enough and the whole story could go very well without that part. I also felt that the story ended in a hurry. I could have become more interesting if some lights were thrown on how the murder of Sam Roffe took place.

The book has got huge appreciation from the critics as well as the readers. The newspapers flooded with the appreciation of the book. According to New York Times the book was 'Absorbing and eminently well-crafted' while Daily Mail found the book 'Contains the three basic Sheldon ingredients - glamour, intrigue and sex.'

The book cover is interesting and so is the story that changes its backdrops fast and shows new faces behind old masks. truly a breathtaking story of greed, betrayal, sabotage and the ties that can kill. The book shows the troubled time of the Roffe empire- established by Samuel Roffe, a visionary man who had ambitions and the zeal to be the best, who could do anything to fulfil his dreams to be rich and to be free- anything, even murder. The Qualities remained in the bloodline and were the roots of all problems and the key to its solutions.
