Book Review:
''It's fascinating to read Sidney Sheldon's first novel, 'The Naked Face,' and see the master at the very beginning of his career. Even in this debut, his talent for crafting a fast-paced, gripping suspense story is fully on display.

The premise is classic Sheldon: an innocent professional is caught in a web of violence and conspiracy he doesn't understand. The setting of a psychoanalyst's office is a clever one, giving us access to the hidden secrets of the characters. The plot moves at a breakneck speed, with bodies piling up and the tension constantly ratcheting higher. The killers are truly menacing, and the mystery of their motive is compelling.

As the Daily Telegraph noted, 'Suspense could hardly be greater.' It's a tingling, breathless read that keeps you guessing until the very end. If you're a fan of Sidney Sheldon or just love a classic, well-crafted thriller, 'The Naked Face' is a must-read.''
