Newly promoted, Detective Sergeant William Warwick has been reassigned to the drugs squad. His first case: to investigate a notorious south London drug lord known as the Viper. But as William and his team close the net around a criminal network unlike any they have ever encountered, he is also faced with an old enemy, Miles Faulkner. It will take all of William's cunning to devise a means to bring both men to justice, a trap neither will expect, one that is hidden in plain sight . . . Filled with Jeffrey Archer's trademark twists and turns, Hidden in Plain Sight is the gripping next instalment in the life of William Warwick. It follows on from Nothing Ventured, but can be read as a standalone story.

Il suffit parfois de se trouver au mauvais endroit au mauvais moment pour voir basculer le cours de sa vie… Si Danny Cartwright avait demandé Beth Wilson en mariage un jour plus tôt, ou un jour plus tard, il n’aurait jamais pu être accusé du meurtre de son meilleur ami. Mais quand les quatre témoins de l’accusation sont un avocat, un acteur à succès, un aristocrate et le plus jeune associé d’une prestigieuse agence immobilière, qui pourrait bien croire à la version des faits d’un garagiste de l’East End ? Danny est donc condamné à vingt-deux années d’emprisonnement dans le quartier de haute sécurité de la prison de Belmarsh, duquel personne ne s’est jamais échappé.
Seulement, ses adversaires ont sous-estimé le désir de revanche du jeune homme et la farouche détermination de sa fiancée à faire entendre justice…Prix Polar international 2009

Author of the best-selling Clifton Chronicles, Jeffrey Archer, gives us fourteen gripping and rewarding short stories for readers to return to time and again.

Find out what happens to the hapless young detective from Naples who travels to an Italian hillside town to solve a murder and the pretentious schoolboy whose discovery of the origins of his father’s wealth changes his life forever. Follow the stories of the woman who dares to challenge the men at her Ivy League university during the 1930s, and another young woman who thumbs a lift and has an encounter of a lifetime.

From the master of the short story, the refreshingly original stories in Tell Tale prove why Archer has been described by The Times as ‘probably the greatest storyteller of our age’.
