The Other Side of Midnight is Sidney Sheldon at his best. This page-turner is full of tortured romantic entanglements, reverses of fortune, thrilling suspense, and ultimate justice. In Paris, Washington, and a fabulous villa in Greece, an innocent American becomes a bewildered, horror-stricken pawn in a game of vengeance and betrayal. She is Catherine Douglas, a woman caught in a web of four … of four lives intertwined by passion as her handsome husband pursues an incredibly beautiful film star . . . and as Constantin Demeris, a legendary Greek tycoon, tightens the strands that control them all.

This is an unusual book. The story is interesting with a universal, sensational appeal. I don’t know if this book was ever made into a movie but it has the feel it may have been written with that goal in mind.
It is hard to put this book down and hard to figure out how it will end.
My only criticism is the use of high profile/celebrity style …
Pure Sheldon. Grabs you from page one and never lets go. Very entertaining.
Sydney Sheldon is one of my all-time favorite authors. I still can’t forget Rage of Angels! And this one was wonderfully memorable too.
This is the first of Sidney Sheldon’s books I’ve read. We’re not talking here about great literature, of course, but one can understand why the author is so popular with the American public. And why not spend a few hours immersed in a “slightly trashy” novel, occasionally?
Great author
Best than I expected
Very soap opera like, and dated
Have you ever gone outside of your comfort zone?
What did it feel like? And were you better for going outside of your comfort zone?
Well, I did in reading The Other Side of Midnight by Sidney Sheldon. This 1974 classic best-selling novel was something I would have never read five or ten years ago. However, I do believe in timing and it …
I first read this one as a teenager and have been hooked on Sheldon’s work ever since. Disturbingly, achingly twisted and a plotline that never stops until the last breathtaking page. Recommend reading the entire series for the full effect.
The Other Side of Midnight is an excellent tale of passion and revenge.
I have read this book multiple times and still enjoy it.
I read this before got my e reader, Man I love Sidney, he is the best. I have read almost all of his bookx
His books are page turners. I have a hard time putting them down.
