'If there were a Nobel Prize for storytelling, Archer would win' - The Daily TelegraphFirst published 50 years ago, Jeffrey Archer's debut novel, Not a Penny More, Not a Penny Less, is a page-turning tale of fraud, revenge, and determination as four men stop at nothing to get back what was stolen from them. It was an international success, launching Jeffrey's standing as a master storyteller. DON'T GET MEAN.
GET EVEN. One million dollars - that's what Harvey Metcalfe, lifelong king of shady deals, has pulled off with empty promises of an oil bonanza and instant riches. Overnight, four men - the heir to an earldom, a Harley Street doctor, a Bond Street art dealer and an Oxford don - find themselves penniless. But this time Harvey has swindled the wrong men. They band together and shadow him from the casinos of Monte Carlo to the high-stakes windows at Ascot and the hallowed lawns of Oxford.
Their plan is simple: to sting the crook for exactly what they lost - not a penny more, not a penny less. Praise for Jeffrey Archer'Probably the greatest storyteller of our age' - Mail on Sunday'Archer has a gift for plot that can only be described as genius' - The Daily Telegraph'Stylish, witty and constantly entertaining' - The Times
