Sunday Times
‘Few are more famous than Archer for keeping the pages turning . . . an extravagant romp – possibly his best’
The Times
Praise for Jeffrey Archer’s short stories
‘Jeffrey Archer plays a subtle cat-and-mouse game with the reader in twelve original short stories that end, more often than not, with our collective whiskers twitching in surprise’

‘Stylish, witty and constantly entertaining . . . Jeffrey Archer has a natural aptitude for short stories’
The Times
‘Archer hits the bull’s eye with an exemplary collection’
