Shelley appeared in the TV movie series Frederick Forsyth Presents. It was a set of six telefilms by internationally acclaimed author Frederick Forsyth, all original spy thrillers. The first, aired in December of 1989, was called A Casualty of War. Shelley played Monica Browne, the love interest who had a deadly secret. "I used to read his books when I was a kid," Shelley said, "and when I got the script, it was like I was getting a good novel to read." She described Forsyth's writing style as "very macho, exciting Cold War stuff." Shelley added, "This is the kind of story everyone likes to watch, and he does them so well." The telefilm was shot in England, Germany and Yugoslavia.
