Memories of Midnight (ISBN 1597770116)

Categories:


Sidney Sheldon does it again!:
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." Kona


Great suspense!:
You just never know where Sheldon is going next! This is what they call "a page turner." A reviewer sets the scene: " "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 our villain Constantine 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." There are a lot of twists and turns and Sheldon does a good job, as he does in "Windmills of the Gods" in letting you see how innocent people can get caught up in messes created by very corrupt individuals. This is a good and easy read. :)


Midnight Madness Revisited:
Excellent sequel to "The Other Side of Midnight." It is remarkable that Sidney Sheldon could write a sequel every bit as good as the original story. "Memories" picks up with the story of Catherine Alexander Douglas where The Other Side of Midnight left off. Constantin Demiris had Catherine locked away in a convent while he arranged to have the death penalty served to his mistress, Noelle Page and her lover, Larry Douglas, Catherine's husband, for Catherine's supposed murder. Now it is Demiris' head that is on the chopping block as Catherine's memory is slowing returning and anyone discovering that she is alive, must be dealt with as well as Catherine herself. Demiris, being the all rich and powerful leader of the world, has everyone in his pocket and it seems inevitable to escape his wrath. His weakness is the fact that he can't get Noelle out of his system and feels his rightful revenge will only come when he takes Larry's wife to bed in the very same way Noelle betrayed him with Larry. At the same time, the closer Catherine comes to remembering her past, the closer she comes to her execution. Unbeknownst to her, thinking Demiris is a very kind man, he arranges for Catherine to work in one of his London offices where he will keep a close eye on her until the time is right to not only have his way with her but then dispose of the lovely Catherine as well. In London, there is less of a chance of anyone recognizing her. The story goes forth with lots of twists and turns and many new villains as well as some very exciting and surprising plots. I had to really keep myself from skipping to the end to find out what happened. I could not put this book down until it was completed. Does good win over evil? It becomes highly doubtful as Demiris tricks everyone he meets and they end up suffering brutal consequences. It appears that no one, no matter how skillful, is immune to his schemes.
