Jeffrey Archer s enviable reputation as a story-
teller is brilliantly enhanced by these twelve orig-
inal short stories, a collection which will
delight--and astonish--every reader.
Like his best-selling novels, Kane and Abel,
The Prodigal Daughter, A Matter of Honor, and
First Among Equals, each of these stories has a
surprise in store for every reader, whether it is
"The Perfect Murder" (which ends with an
unforgettable courtroom shocker worthy of the
late Alfred Hitchcock) or "Just Good Friends"
(in which the relationship between a young man
and a very designing female turns out to be hot at
all what the reader might have expected).
Archer s touch is deft, unerring, witty, and
wicked, whether his subject is a wine expert put
to the acid test (with surprising results), or a finance minister whose reputation for honesty leads him to a Swiss bank.
