Аннотация

A man decides to visit his mistress. But on arrival, he sees her embracing another man. He waits for the interloper to leave, then goes in, starts an argument with the woman, strikes her and it results in her death. Having left the flat without being seen, he tips off the police about the interloper, who is charged. Has he achieved The perfect Murder?
This is just the first of the tantalising to be asked in twelve superb works of fiction by the greatest of modern storytellers, Jeffrey Archer.
A game of chess with a sexy stranger; a violent argument in a golf club bar; a wine expert challenged to a tasting with a bizarre difference are some of the other intriguing starting-points for a set of cunningly constructed and marvellously entertaining stories from the author of such classic novels as A MATTER OF HONOUR, KANE AND ABEL and NOT PENNY MORE, NOT A PENNY LESS.
Told with wit and sophistication, nerve-tingling suspense and champagne style, here are a dozen mysterious adventures that keep the pages turning at breakneck speed.
