Book description
Taken from Jeffrey Archer's fourth collection of short stories,
To Cut a Long Story Short
, comes this irresistible, witty and ingenious short read.
Bill has had the same spot under the archway outside Critchley's Bank
for years. He knows all the staff: the yuppies, the middle-management,
the executives . . . perhaps better than they know themselves. Across
the company, from lowest to highest ranking, each looks at what the
other has. But with every rung further up the ladder problems become
increasingly complex and more difficult to escape from . . .
Jeffrey Archer, whose novels and short stories include
Not a Penny More, Not a Penny Less, Kane and Abel and
A Twist in the Tale, has topped the bestseller lists around
the world, with sales of over 210 million copies. Paths of
Glory, his most recent novel, was a global number one bestseller
and remained on the Sunday Times bestseller list for ten weeks.
The author is married with two children, and lives in London and
Cambridge. www. jeffreyarcher. com
