Book Summary

This collection features twelve sharply crafted short stories, many inspired by anecdotes Jeffrey Archer encountered during his two‑year imprisonment, along with others drawn from true-life sources. The tales explore a rich mix of characters and settings:

  • A company chairman tries to poison his wife in St Petersburg.

  • A Bombay con artist ends up in the morgue after scheming against the police chief.

  • A prisoner arranges the murder of an enemy and frames prison officers as alibi.

  • An accountant, nearing retirement, attempts a last-ditch fortune-making scheme.

  • A footballer unexpectedly falls for a plus-sized Italian heiress .

Each story is ingeniously plotted, with memorable characters and sharp twist endings—often dark, occasionally comedic—highlighting Archer’s gift for suspense and storytelling
