| book description |

‘Probably the greatest storyteller of our age’ – The Mail on Sunday A collection of fifteen gripping short stories from the number one internationally bestselling author Jeffrey Archer. A hapless young detective from Naples travels to an Italian hillside town to find out who killed the mayor. A pretentious schoolboy’s life is changed for ever when he discovers the origins of his father’s wealth. A lecturer dares to challenge the men at her Ivy League university during the 1930s. And a young woman gets more than she bargained for when she thumbs a lift. These wonderfully engaging and refreshingly original tales offer a fascinating, poignant insight into the people Archer has met, the stories he has come across and the countries he has visited. Some are loosely based on incidents Archer picked up on his travels from Grantchester to Calcutta, Christchurch to Cape Town, while others are the result of his boundless imagination. One story even has three different endings – it’s up to you to pick which one you prefer. Tell Tale is a fast-paced, entertaining set of stories from the bestselling author of the Clifton Chronicles and the William Warwick series. ***** Praise for Jeffrey Archer: ‘Stylish, witty and constantly entertaining . . . Jeffrey Archer has a natural aptitude for short stories’ – The Times ‘Archer has a gift for plot that can only be described as genius’ – The Daily Telegraph ‘Outstanding . . . white-knuckle suspense and witty dénouements’ – Daily Express ‘Archer hits the bull’s-eye with an exemplary collection of short stories’ – Daily Mail
