Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

In this "crudely carved" sequel to The Other Side of Midnight , Greek tycoon Constantin Demiris orders the deaths of anyone who can prove he engineered a somewhat unsuccessful plot to execute his mistress Catherine--now amnesiac--and her lover. "Subtlety is not Sheldon's strong suit, but rarely has it been so utterly absent from his character development and plotting," said PW .

This review is from: Memories of Midnight (Mass Market Paperback)

This novel continues the exciting story begun in Sheldon's "The Other Side of Midnight." In that novel, mega-rich Constantin Demiris manipulated the Greek court to have his mistress, Noelle, and her lover, Larry, executed for the murder of Larry's wife, Catherine. No body was ever found, and in fact, Catherine was alive and well, under the watchful eyes of Demiris.

"Memories of Midnight" begins as amnesiac Catherine starts remembering things...like the fact that her husband was killed for her supposed "murder." This could prove dangerous to Demiris, who sends her to London to work for him. Meanwhile, back in Greece, all the people who know that Catherine is still alive are systematically killed, and, just as Catherine find happiness, someone is sent to kill her.

This is that rare sequel that is actually better than the wonderful original novel. The plot twists will keep you turning the pages, and the ending is so unexpected and so shocking, you will be left breathless, and very glad you read "Memories of Midnight."

This review is from: Memories of Midnight (Mass Market Paperback)

An excellent sequel to "The Other Side of Midnight." If you've read that book before, yep, there's more to excitement to come. If you haven't read the book before, I suggest you read it before you read this book. In short, this is another great book from Sidney Sheldon.
