Reviews
"Will keep your blood pressure high and you'll risk back injury just from being kept on the edge of your seat...I guarantee that anyone who takes this book from the shelves will not be able to put it down." --The Spectator (UK) on The Sins of the Father
"[Archer] is a master of fiction...Jeffrey Archer has the strange gift denied to many who think themselves more serious novelists. He can tell a story, and he does so with such conviction, such appealing naivety, that you suspend disbelief, and read happily on." --The Scotsman (UK) on The Sins of the Father
" Archer can plot a story." --Kirkus Reviews on The Sins of the Father
