Dr Anne took the latest three Jeffrey Archer books with her on the trip to India. Jeffrey writes a good story which will command attention in a context with many other people.
Archer, J. (2011). Only Time Will Tell. London:Macmillan.
The Cliftons and Barringtons are interlinked. Harry and Giles are best friends then find out that they are half brothers when Harry is about to marry Giles' sister Emma. This story tells of their early life. It was a wonderful page turner for the Huntly - Glasgow train ride, the Glasgow - Dubai, and Dubai - Ahmedbad flights.
Archer, J. (2012). The Sins of the Father. London: Macmillan.
Harry runs away to the Navy and is arrested and imprisoned in America falsely. Emma sets out to look for him convinced he is alive somewhere. Giles goes into the army and excels. Who is the heir to the Barrington Estate when Hugo Barrington is found murdered by his concubine? This book kept Dr Anne's interest between Bhuj - Jaipur - Bikaner.
Archer, J. (2013). Best Kept Secrets. London: Macmillan.
Dr Anne had kept this book for the journey from Ahmedbad - Portsoy. However, there was a 9 hour train journey from Jodhpur - Ahmedbad. The seal on the double glazed window was broken so one couldn't sit and look out at the countryside. The third book was as much a page turner as the first two. Dr Anne was looking forward to find out the Lord Chancellor's decision on who should heir the Barrington fortune. The end of the book leaves Dr Anne wondering who has been killed in the car accident - Sebastian Clifton, the son of Harry and Emma or his friend Bruno, son of the guy who has set out to ruin the Barringtons..
Apparently there will be sequels.
Dr Anne awards 7/10 for her holiday read.
