Twelve Red Herrings, Jeffrey Archer

A collection of twelve captivating short stories from the number one internationally bestselling author Jeffrey Archer. A wrongly convicted murderer exacts a flawless plan of revenge. Headlights in a rearview mirror pursue a female traveler on a lonely stretch of road.

A serial bride secures her future by marrying only the wealthiest of men. And an escaped Iraqi with a price on his head pays an involuntary visit to his homeland. From Cambridge to New York, Hertfordshire to Istanbul, Jeffrey Archer explores what happens when people are put under pressure: how they will react when they have an opportunity to seize, a crucial problem to solve, a danger to avoid? But expect the unexpected and you’ll still be surprised, because buried in each tale is a red herring – a wicked diversion that Archer challenges readers to uncover for themselves.
