Mistress of the Game

SIDNEY SHELDON’S MISTRESS OF THE GAME by Tilly Bagshawe A worthwhile continuation of the Blackwell Family Saga.

Mistress of the Game is the continuation of family saga of the Blackwells, first brought to life by Sidney Sheldon. Tilly Bagshawe does a good job of weaving ambition, psychosis, incestuous relationships, and criminal actions in a “Winner take all” fashion. Her characters were flawed and heroic, in other words, they were human.

Ms. Bagshawe does a wonderful job of bringing to life the uber wealthy in the same manner that Sidney Sheldon did, giving them personalities, faults and frailties. I will be honest, I did not know if Ms. Bagshawe would be able to write the character of Eve as evil as Mr. Sheldon did, but I was pleasantly surprised that she was able to make the character even more despicable. Its always refreshing to have a character’s faults be represented by their appearance. Kudos to Ms. Bagshawe for conveying a character who could withstand Eve’s machinations and familial hatred.

Recommend?

Highly recommend to those who wish to read a tight storyline with no unnecessary fluff.
