Commentary In Favor Of Books Dangerous to Know

Sebastian Locke, the fifty-six-year-old patriarch of a powerful American family, is handsome, charismatic, and a man of immense charm and intelligence. He is the chairman of the philanthropic Locke Foundation, funded by the vast family fortune built by his forefathers. Committed to relieving the suffering of those in genuine need, Locke travels the globe giving away millions a year to the poor, the sick, and the innocent victims of natural disasters and wars. He is seen as a beacon of light in today's darkly violent world.

That is why the police are profoundly baffled when Sebastian Locke is found dead at his country estate under mysterious circumstances. Has he been murdered? And if so, who would have wanted to kill the world's greatest philanthropist? Could such an upstanding man have had enemies?

Vivienne Trent, an American journalist, had been fascinated by Locke as a child, married him when she was a young woman, then later divorced him, but had always stayed close to him. Aware that there had been another side to this enigmatic man, she sets out to find the truth about his death and about Locke himself, much to the annoyance of his two grown children, who find her obsession irritating.

As she prepares to write a profile of Locke for the London Sunday Times, Vivienne uncovers startling revelations, revelations that turn her life around.

Critique About Books Dangerous to Know

An intriguing story that takes you on a unique journey to find out exactly what caused Sebastian Locke to choose to commit suicide. The reason is not revealed until nearly the end of the book, which makes it so intriguing and a compelling read.

Not what I expected from one of my favorite authors

This was my first book by this author, having seen plenty of her books around. I enjoyed it, and was extremely surprised by the revelations towards the end!Its a good story about a misfit rich family, told from four characters points of view which gives a nice variety. Written probably with older readers in mind it didnt quite sit well with me but I enjoyed it all the same.Update: having had a few days after finishing this book my feelings on it have changed. Im cross at the author - the ending

A reflection on a man's life shown through the eyes of the people who loved him most, Sebastian Locke is the main man of this story even after he's six feet under.Unfortunately, I went into this thinking it a thriller, but it was anything but. Sure some big things were revealed, but nothing thriller-esque.A point that reallt bothered me was the incest and age difference relationships. This is purely personal preference, but it was just too much for me.

This book was ok but I suppose none of her work will ever top Woman Of Substance.

I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. Read it this afternoon. Engrossing.

This is quite a good book. At first you are kind of mixed up as to what is the mystery. Then Sebastian Locke is found dead. It is determined it was suicide, but Vivian his xwife won't accept that. She is a writer and can't accept it so she insists in trying to find out why he would commit suicide. He had lunch with her not too long ago and he told her he was getting married again. She is happy for him and that is why she can't accept it.What she investigates and finds out is unbelievable!!!
