The Eleventh Commandment

Jeffrey Archer has sold more than 300 million copies in 114 countries and is published in 47 languages—a writer who has established himself inexorably as one of the world's greatest bestselling authors . He is the only author who was number 1 in the genres of fiction (nineteen times), short stories (four times) and non-fiction (with The Prison Diaries). Author of the famous saga The Clifton Chronicles, he has recently begun the publication of the new series William Warwick, whose protagonist will certainly not be a stranger to his readers (Who doesn't Risk..., Hidden in plain sight, Turn a blind eye and Just over my corpse have already been published by Bertrand). In the Line of Succession, which is set against the backdrop of the British royal family, is the fifth novel in this series that has already conquered readers around the world.
Renowned for his discipline as a writer, working on up to fourteen different versions of each book, Archer also brings a great deal of insider knowledge to his books. Whether through his own political career, his passionate interest in art, or the impressive wealth of detail — inspired by the extraordinary network of friendships he built over a lifetime in the heart of the British establishment — his novels provide a fascinating glimpse into a series of closed worlds.
