"Jeffrey Archer has been acclaimed as 'probably the greatest storyteller of our age' and 'a storyteller in the class of Alexandre Dumas'. As a writer of short stories he has been called 'stylish, witty and constantly entertaining' by The Times, while Publishers Weekly wrote: 'Somerset Maugham never penned anything so swift or urbanely witty as this.' This third collection of Jeffrey Archer's stories surpasses either of its predecessors, and will enhance his reputation even further." - back cover.
