Cat O' Nine Tales is the sixth collection of irresistible short stories from the master storyteller, illustrated by internationally acclaimed artist Ronald Searle, creator of Molesworth.
These 12 yarns are so satisfying because they are ingeniously plotted, include richly drawn characters and have deliciously unexpected conclusions. They feature the mad, the bad and the dangerous to know, as well as some more poignant and telling characters.
Many of these stories came to Archer while he was incarcerated for two years in five different prisons, and so they have a prison theme. Others were inspired since he was released, but all in all they confirm his position as one of the best storytellers alive today.
Jeffrey Archer, whose bestselling novels span from Not a Penny More, Not a Penny Less to Kane and Abel and The Eleventh Commandment, has sold millions of books throughout the world. His collections of short stories include A Quiver Full of Arrows and Twelve Red Herrings. The author is married with two children.
