    About this audiobook

    Jeffrey Archer returns with his eagerly-awaited audiobook collection. Tell Tale gives listeners a fascinating, exciting and sometimes poignant insight into the people he has met, the stories he has come across, and the countries he has visited.

    Find out what happens to the hapless young detective from Naples who travels to an Italian hillside town to find out Who Killed the Mayor? and the pretentious schoolboy in A Road to Damascus, whose discovery of the origins of his father’s wealth changes his life in the most profound way.

    Revel in the stories of the 1930’s woman who dares to challenge the men at her Ivy League University in A Gentleman and A Scholar while another young woman who thumbs a lift gets more than she bargained for in A Wasted Hour.

    These wonderfully engaging and always refreshingly original tales explain why Archer has been described by The Times as probably the greatest storyteller of our age. A must-listen for anyone who seeks an audio adventure!

      I don’t read short stories often, but this book reminded me why I should read them more often. I’ve been reading and enjoying Jeffrey Archer since Kane and Abel back in 1979, and he does short stories as well as anyone out there. Each little nugget is fully formed, each character given his/her due, each story has a satisfying, and often unexpected, ending. Quite enjoyable, I can recommend this on for anyone who enjoys short stories, and even for those who don’t - it might just change your mind.
