About This Book
Tracy Whitney has always been the kind of woman who survives by being smarter than everyone in the room. But survival looks different when the thing you were fighting to protect is gone. In Reckless, Sidney Sheldon's iconic thief is pulled back into a world of international intrigue, dangerous adversaries, and moral ambiguity — this time with grief as her fuel and nothing left to lose. The stakes feel genuinely personal rather than just global, and that emotional undercurrent gives the thriller its real tension.
Tilly Bagshawe continues her stewardship of Sheldon's legacy with the propulsive, scene-jumping momentum that defined the original Tracy Whitney novels — short chapters, sharp dialogue, and a plot that keeps pivoting just when you think you've caught up. What distinguishes this installment is how it layers a contemporary threat — digital, ideological, stateless — against the old-school cat-and-mouse energy that made Tracy so compelling in the first place. It's a confident blend of vintage Sheldon glamour and fresher, more modern anxieties, built for readers who want their page-turners to actually earn each turn.
