Book description
The master storyteller’s legacy continues. An elusive and shadowy
killer is on the prowl, codenamed the Angel of Death.
When an elderly multimillionaire is found brutally murdered in
Hollywood, and his young wife raped and beaten, the police assume the
motive is robbery.
A decade later, in different cities around the globe - St Tropez, London
and Hong Kong - three almost identical killings take place within 5
years of each other. In all cases the victim is male, wealthy, elderly
and newly married, and his wife is found at the scene either raped or assaulted.
It soon becomes clear that this is one killer.
Codenamed Angel of Death by the police, is she avenging some
long-forgotten misdeed, or does she have other motives? Who will be her
next victim, and how can the Angel of Death be prevented from striking
again? ‘ Suspense could hardly be greater’ Daily Telegraph
‘ What a pleasure to have Papa’s books live on through Tilly Bagshawe.
How he would have delighted in her plot twists and characters. And she’s
young and beautiful to boot - a Sidney Sheldon heroine come to life!’

‘ She seemed to catch that inner voice... she was one of his characters.
I could feel Sidney smiling down on me, saying “this is perfect”.’
