You just made my day, by saying my attempt at this thriller genre reminded you of a master like Sidney Sheldon. 😳 Man, that was a HUGE compliment. Thanks so much, yaar.
I think the book you read is called "Naked Face". I remember reading it too. Amazing, na? My personal favorites of Sheldon's, are "Master of the Game" and "The Other side of Midnight". You must have read those, na?
Oh, I wanted to dedicate this piece to you, yaar. You had asked me after "Saudade", na, that I could have continued the tale a wee bit further, to show the hotel room scene as well? ☺️ Well, hotel room I didn't do, but then in this TS, I put SwaSan in a similar position in their room at Maheshwari house! 😳 Glad you liked the romance, and that blasted pillow wall getting thoroughly dismantled! I am so, so very happy that you liked the blend of suspense and romance I attempted here.
I was actually having chills running down my spine when I wrote the Lakshya--Swara confrontation in the end, so am sadistically happy 😛 to hear you felt reading it gave you chills!
Since you gave me such a lovely compliment in French, I want to respond in kind, by saying, merci beaucoup. 😊
Was very touched by your comment. Thanks again.
Hey Viji. I think the book was ''Tell me your dreams''. Ooh ''Master Of The Game is a classic. It's my favorite too. What a stunning piece of fiction. I can't remember what The Naked Face was about. I remember Morning, Noon and Night, Memories of Midnight. Bloodline, and a few more. Its been a while since I last read a thriller. Have you read Dean Koontz.? He is also a terrific writer and let me see ... a few John Grisham and Dan Brown novels. Oh and How can I forget Stephen King. Though King and Koontz work is mostly science fiction.
I think your TS has renewed my interest in Suspense Thrillers. Might just go and browse the book store. Any Suggestions?😊
