Book Description
It is only days before Britain declares war on Germany. Harry Clifton, hoping to escape the consequences of a family scandal, and realizing he can never marry Emma Barrington, has joined the Merchant Navy. When a German U-boat sinks his ship, Harry and a handful of sailors are rescued by the SS Kansas Star, among them an American named Tom Bradshaw. That night, when Bradshaw dies, Harry seizes a chance to bury his pastby assuming the man's identity.
My Review
This is the 2nd book in the Clifton Chronicles series and in order to understand the story and know the characters it is best to read this series in order. This book was just as good as the first and kept me reading until the last page where once again it ended with a cliff-hanger. As I already own the 3rd book, I was eager to read the prologue in order to see the results of the cliff-hanger. Jeffrey Archer has a wonderful way with words and the lives of the Barringtons and Harry Clifton is all consuming while reading one of his books. I will continue with the next books in the series and hope and pray that Jeffrey Archer keeps writing and I won't have to wait a whole year for one of his cliff-hangers. If you haven't started this series, you should, as you will not be disappointed.
