"False Impression" by Jeffrey Archer

"False Impression" by Jeffrey Archer

"Why was an elegant lady brutally murdered the night before 9/11?

Why was a successful New York banker not surprised to receive a woman's left ear in the morning mail?

Why did a top Manhattan lawyer work only for one client, but never charge a fee?

Why did a young woman with a bright career steal a priceless Van Gogh painting?

Why was an Olympic gymnast paid a million dollars an assignment when she didn't have a bank account?

Why was an honors graduate working as a temporary secretary after inheriting a fortune?

Why was an English Countess ready to kill the banker, the lawyer, and the gymnast even if it meant spending the rest of her life in jail?

Why was a Japanese steel magnate happy to hand over $50 million to a woman he had only met once?

Why was a senior FBI agent trying to work out the connection between these eight apparently innocent individuals?"


Very easy book to read. Full of action and interesting facts about history of art. Besides, I Like Van Gogh's paintings. I didn't use to understand them, but there is nothing permanent in the world including my ignorance...
