TO CUT A LONG STORY SHORT

These fourteen stories show Jeffrey Archers great skills with a wide variety of character of subject and of setting but all with that trademark twist in the tail. Every reader will have their own favourites: the choices run from love at first sight across the train tracks to the cleverest of confidence tricks from the quirks of the legal profession x and those who are able to manipulate both sides of the Bar x to the creative financial talents of a member of Her Majestys diplomatic service x but for a good cause. The last story The Grass is Always Greener is possibly the best piece Archer has written and will haunt you for the rest of your life.
