Jeffrey Archer's sweeping tale of the Clifton family advances to the late 1960s.

Harry Clifton is more successful than ever as a novelist, and has just been elected president of PEN Britain. He learns of a writer in Russia whose memoir of life inside Stalin's palace has landed the writer in prison for life, his book taken off shelves and destroyed. Harry becomes obsessed with freeing the writer and telling his story. His wife Emma, meanwhile is the chair of Barringtons Shipping, having escaped a plot to destroy their company by bombing one of their luxury liners, and now the company is thriving. But old villains remain determined in their efforts to bring down both Emma and her family.

From Major Alex Fisher to his friend and ally Mrs. Virginia Fenwick, Emma will have to use every tool she has to save them. Their son Sebastian's banking career means everything to him, but is he willing to give up Samantha, the love of his life, in pursuit of his success? Once again, in the hands of our age's most masterful storyteller, the lives of the Clifton family will have listeners mesmerized.

And the story continues!

The narrator is a great fit and easy to listen to. This story continues on at full strength. Cannot wait to listen to the next novel.

best yet!

The narrating is incredible - the storyline is rich in intrigue and heart-stopping moments! By now, the characters are no longer imaginary to me. I will certainly be lunching with them all someday!

Another outstanding episode.

Even though at times I wish the chronicles of the Clifton family would conclude, I can't wait for the next episode. Mr. Archer continues keep me on the edge of my seat waiting.

Intriguing read

Keeps the suspense alive throughout and the Archer twists are in abundance in this continuation of the Clifton chronicles.

Ending

Is this series ever going to wrap up with a conclusion? The series is intriguing, but leaves the reader with a cliff hanger at the end of each book.

Plots unending

Excellent story with page turning appeal.
Endings always leave one hanging for some resolution to come in next novel although as soon as one is found another quickly appears on the horizon. Not sure this is fair game although certainly a successful marketing maneuver ......

Just keeps getting better!

Enthralling tale yet again! I hope these books never end, as I've become so attached to all the characters... and the narrator who does such an incredible job!

Great read

I could not stop until I had read all three books in the series. The reader is fantastic.
