Jeffrey Archer - Cat O' Nine Tales (2nd Hand Paperback)
Synopsis
These twelve yarns are so satisfying because they are ingeniously plotted, include richly drawn characters and have deliciously unexpected conclusions. They feature the mad, the bad and the dangerous to know as well as some more poignant and telling characters.
Many of these stories came to Archer while he was incarcerated for two years in five different prisons, and so they have a prison theme. Others were inspired since he was released, but all in all they confirm his position as one of the best storytellers alive today.

External Reviews
"Stylish, witty and constantly entertaining . . . Jeffrey Archer has a natural aptitude for short stories." - The Times.
"Cat O' Nine Tales is a classic Jeffrey Archer book of short stories. Each story is quick and easy to read and most have the Jeffrey Archer twist in them somewhere! While I enjoy novels much more than short stories, this set is very easy to read and the stories are each interesting. Most of the tales are based on stories shared with the author when he spent his own time in prison. Although stories are embellished, they all have some basis in fact. It appears that Archer spent his time in prison well to come out of it with yet another book. A quick, enjoyable read." - Ebay Review.
