معلومات عن هذا الكتاب الإلكتروني
Author of the bestselling Clifton Chronicles, Jeffrey Archer, gives us fifteen gripping and rewarding short stories for readers to return to time and again.
Find out what happens to the hapless young detective from Naples who travels to an Italian hillside town to solve a murder and the pretentious schoolboy whose discovery of the origins of his father’s wealth changes his life forever. Follow the stories of the woman who dares to challenge the men at her Ivy League university during the 1930s, and another young woman who thumbs a lift and has an encounter of a lifetime.
From the master of the short story, the refreshingly original stories in Tell Tale prove why Archer has been described by the Mail on Sunday as ‘probably the greatest storyteller of our age’.

Praise for Jeffrey Archer’s short stories:
‘Somerset Maugham never penned anything so swift or urbanely witty as this’ - Publishers Weekly
‘Outstanding . . . white-knuckle suspense and witty denouements. Enjoyable, suspense-filled rival to Roald Dahl’ - Daily Express
‘Stylish, witty and constantly entertaining . . . Jeffrey Archer has a natural aptitude for short stories’ – The Times
‘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’ - The New York Times
‘Archer hits the bull’s eye with an exemplary collection’ - Daily Mail
‘The economy and precision of Archer’s prose never fails to delight. The criminal doesn’t always get away with his crime and justice doesn’t always prevail, but the reader wins with each and every story’ - Publishers Weekly
