This guy is one of my all-time favorite writers... I've read all his books.. he just knows a lot keda.. he writes about lawyers, doctors, assassins, ambassadors and he spans tens of countries in his novels.. I was always impressed by his storylines and his knowledgebase... "Un-put-down-able" is how they described his books, and they really were..

His novels were:
  • The Naked Face (1970)
  • The Other Side of Midnight (1973)
  • A Stranger in the Mirror (1976)
  • Bloodline (1977)
  • Rage of Angels (1980)
  • Master of the Game (1982)
  • If Tomorrow Comes (1985)
  • Windmills of the Gods (1987)
  • The Sands of Time (1988)
  • Memories of Midnight (1990)
  • The Doomsday Conspiracy (1991)
  • The Stars Shine Down (1992)
  • Nothing Lasts Forever (1994)
  • Morning, Noon and Night (1995)
  • The Best Laid Plans (1997)
  • Tell Me Your Dreams (1998)
  • The Sky is Falling (2001)
  • Are You Afraid of the Dark? (2004)

And his autobiography, "The Other Side of Me", published last year..

Too bad this man wont be writing no more..
