Story4.5 out of 5 stars 346
William Warwick has always wanted to be a detective, and decides, much to his father’s dismay, that rather than become a lawyer like his father, Sir Julian Warwick QC, and his sister, Grace, he will join London’s Metropolitan Police Force. After graduating from university, William begins a career that will define his life: from his early months on the beat under the watchful eye of his first mentor, Constable Fred Yates, to his first high-stakes case as a fledgling detective in Scotland Yard’s arts and antiquities squad.

Publisher's Summary
Many of these stories came to Archer while he was incarcerated for two years in five different prisons, and so they have a prison theme. Others were inspired after he was released. All in all, they confirm his position as one of the best storytellers alive.

Stories with unexpected twists!
Anton Lesser is a brilliant narrator! He knows a lot of English dialects and knows how to use them! These stories by Jeffrey Archer could not have got a better performer. If the character is a prisoner as in 'It Can’t Be October Already' or an Italian Art dealer in 'In The Eye of the Beholder' - just perfect. Movies through the ears! ;-)

I enjoyed the stories; narrator was excellent.
I'd read the book when I was much younger and loved the stories. I enjoyed the narration even more.
