'Stylish, witty and constantly entertaining . . . Jeffrey Archer has a natural aptitude for short stories' - The Times A collection of fourteen riveting short stories from the number one internationally bestselling author Jeffrey Archer.

An intoxicating woman appears to her lover only once every six years. A British diplomat employs his rather creative - if not entirely ethical - financial talents for a greater good. And a millionaire declares himself bankrupt to test the love and loyalties of those closest to him.

These riveting tales of elaborate confidence tricks, political chicanery, immoral behaviour, and dangerously illicit affairs are rendered with the breath-taking narrative twists that have become the Jeffrey Archer hallmark. Peopled with a rich assortment of truly memorable characters, these stories will engross and astonish.

To Cut A Long Story Short is an enthralling set of short stories from the bestselling author of the Clifton Chronicles and the William Warwick series.

Nothing Ventured PB was an instant Sunday Times no.1 bestseller when it published 19.03.2020
