However, if you are looking for the online, your own story might take a "techno-thriller" turn:

Bloodline endures not as high literature but as a potent cultural artifact. It captures the anxieties of the post-Watergate 1970s—an era of distrust in institutions, fear of assassination, and the dawning realization that the wealthy play by different, more brutal rules. Sidney Sheldon’s genius was to make that terrifying world feel both fantastically glamorous and horribly real. For Elizabeth Roffe, the bloodline is both her inheritance and her prison, and in Sheldon’s universe, there is no escape from either.

Sheldon's writing style is engaging and effortless to read, making it easy to become fully immersed in the world of high-stakes politics, crime, and family drama. The characters are well-developed and multi-dimensional, with Kristi being a strong and relatable protagonist.
