Another oh so good book by Jeffrey Archer. Now to the library to get the next book in this series!

The Barringtons and the Cliftons are, of course, the good guys again, and, while I won't spoil anybody's fun, the villains are back and there are more of them. The story gets repetitive, with many cliff hangers at the same time. That…

I agree with a reader,,,,"do not read comments" some readers give the ending away. Best Kept Secret the 3rd novel of Archer's trilogy was spoiled for me by a reader's comment..Too bad he/she couldn't keep the best kept secret. I will not…

Readers who give away the plot are people who are insensitive, and all wrapped up in themselves.

I enjoyed it very much. I like that there a many small endings and everything isn' drawn out to a boring full book when you are just saying I really don't care anymore, just end it. I, for one get involved with characters and don't like…

It is a testament to this author's writing skill that even though I have read this book earlier I read it all over again. This book from the Clifton Chronicles deals with the Cliftons and the Barringtons in the post war era and gripping…

Another excellent Clifton Cronicles read - as his nefarious characters become more and more gross!! Looking forward to the newest book coming out in March.

I thought this one a good read. I enjoyed it every bit as much as the other two in the trilogy.

I put a hold on this book nearly 3 months ago and found it in the "Fast Lane" last week. I found the first 2 volumes to be excellent and looked forward to reading the 3rd. I was aware of everything going on and thought "I must have…

so slooooow! Not nearly as interesting as the first two in the series. A real let down.

His books in this series are getting predictable. After reading the first one it was obvious there would be another one. A good author does not leave things dangling. His writing is so simplistic, and easy to follow. I do enjoy the…

I was expecting some thing a bit better. The storyline was predictable until you get to the end... I would read the next book just to find out what happens.

I'd give this one a D-. Crappy ending. Weak beginning, poor middle, and did I mention the lousy ending.

the First book was a page turner and loved it. The second was still a good read, but the third book deteriorated considerably. Didn’t really care about the characters as much and did a lot of skip reading. However, I will try the fourth…

I'm not his greatest fan, and this storyline is quite good, but his technical detail in the maritime field is sorely lacking.! Not that that detracts from the story, but like others I can envisage a fourth book, based on the idea that…

Excellent read. The series reminds me of Charles Dickens & Great Expectations. Archer continues to be a masterful storyteller. I love all of his books.

cant wait to read this book. just finished Sins of the Father. I was hooked after the second chapter and spent every spare minute reading it. Hoping the new one is as good.
