Windmills of the Gods

1987

by Sidney Sheldon

Windmills of the Gods is a classic best-selling thriller that races from the halls of the White House to the romance-filled streets of Paris, and the shady menace of Cold War Bucharest. A young woman, a newly appointed ambassador, finds herself facing unseen and powerful enemies plotting her and her children's destruction.

Mary Ashley, a beautiful and accomplished scholar, has suddenly become the U.S. ambassador to an Iron Curtain country. She is on the glinting edge of East-West confrontation and is about to dramatically change the course of world events if she lives.

Marked for death by the world's most proficient and mysterious assassin, Mary is plunged into a nightmare of espionage, kidnapping, and terror. In this thrilling journey, only two people—both powerfully attractive and ultimately enigmatic men—can offer her help. But one of them wants to kill her.

The action races from Washington D.C. to Buenos Aires, from Paris and Rome to Bucharest, as Mary struggles against her unseen assassins and the apparent treachery of the men she trusts. This is a gripping tale of suspense and international intrigue that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
