I am just over 50% through and am completely hooked。 I started with the Clifton Chronicles and the William Warwick series sprung from that。 I love Jeffrey Archer's books anyway， but this series is amazing。 Should have been written by Harry Clifton， the character in The Clifton Chronicles that was writing these amazing books。 This is book 5， have a look at this series， you will love it as much as I do， I am sure。 I am just over 50% through and am completely hooked。 I started with the Clifton Chronicles and the William Warwick series sprung from that。 I love Jeffrey Archer's books anyway， but this series is amazing。 Should have been written by Harry Clifton， the character in The Clifton Chronicles that was writing these amazing books。 This is book 5， have a look at this series， you will love it as much as I do， I am sure。 。。。more

Three stories in one that eventually tie together。 One involving a criminal n the run with a priceless art collection， another about the lives of various British police and judges trying to outwit terrorists。 The best one is a fictional plot involving Princess Diana。

This is clearly the most compelling plot in the series as it reaches to the highest levels of the Crown to draw upon for an action packed finale。 Until the cliff hanger， that is。

Yet another great read in this series from Lord Archer。 Such a great author。 So much going on in these books。 Never a dull moment and you always have to be on your toes to keep up。

I do like a Jeffery Archer saga and this one is of his best。 I wasn't sure at first whether it would be as good as the Clifton one but I think it meets the challenge。 William Warwick is back again and fighting crime and his nemesis again。 This time it is set around the time of Charles and Diana's marriage when she was beloved by so many。 The book is very enjoyable with lots of twists and subplots as to be expected from this author。 I do find some of the characters a bit pompous and unrelatable， I do like a Jeffery Archer saga and this one is of his best。 I wasn't sure at first whether it would be as good as the Clifton one but I think it meets the challenge。 William Warwick is back again and fighting crime and his nemesis again。 This time it is set around the time of Charles and Diana's marriage when she was beloved by so many。 The book is very enjoyable with lots of twists and subplots as to be expected from this author。 I do find some of the characters a bit pompous and unrelatable， particularly Sir Julian that's probably due to my working class background。I am looking forward to the next installment。Thank you to Netgalley and HarperCollins UK， HarperFiction for the ARC 。。。more

JA is such a talented novelist。 This is a great book: well researched， a twisting and clever plot and a brilliant， flowing writing style that keeps the reader engaged in the present whilst being intrigued as to what will happen next。 A truly satisfying and rich political novel。 With thanks to Netgalley and Harper Collins for the arc

This novel is the fifth book in the William Warwick series。 I like Warwick as a character， as this mix of hero and family man。 It is always a pleasure to read a new story featuring him。 In this instalment， he is still pursuing the Miles Faulkner storyline with a number of twists involving Miles's wife Christina and lawyer Booth Watson。 He also needs to investigate the Royal Protection team for fraud。 But Diana， Princess of Wales， makes an appearance as victim of a terrorist plot that almost cost This novel is the fifth book in the William Warwick series。 I like Warwick as a character， as this mix of hero and family man。 It is always a pleasure to read a new story featuring him。 In this instalment， he is still pursuing the Miles Faulkner storyline with a number of twists involving Miles's wife Christina and lawyer Booth Watson。 He also needs to investigate the Royal Protection team for fraud。 But Diana， Princess of Wales， makes an appearance as victim of a terrorist plot that almost costs her her life。 There is a lot going on！As all Jeffrey Archer's novels， this is a very entertaining story。 It is not my favorite of the series though。 I found that the multiple storylines made it difficult to follow and， for me， the end was a little abrupt。 I assume there is another instalment coming next and this one felt a bit like an in between episode。 。。。more

I loved the previous book in the series and I loved this one as well。 It feels a bit surreal to read it in these times when the royal family is so much on the spotlight。 But I enjoyed every second of it。 I can only imagine the reality of being the security of a royal family member let alone one so famous as Diana was。 The author is well known for his ability to woven real facts with fiction and take you on a ride。 The characters are so well drawn and feel like someone that I actually know and in I loved the previous book in the series and I loved this one as well。 It feels a bit surreal to read it in these times when the royal family is so much on the spotlight。 But I enjoyed every second of it。 I can only imagine the reality of being the security of a royal family member let alone one so famous as Diana was。 The author is well known for his ability to woven real facts with fiction and take you on a ride。 The characters are so well drawn and feel like someone that I actually know and interact at times in real life。 There’s a lot going on in here。 Some predictable turns but many unexpected twists as well， especially midway through the story。 What amazed me was Beth， Warwick’s wife。 She plays a big part in the story。 It was interesting to just imagine them all in 1988 and the investigation process。 I guess many of those tactics still applies nowadays。 Action packed， thrilling and exciting new story from a now favourite thrillers author。🆓📖Very grateful to the publisher for my review copy through NetGalley 。。。more

3。5 starsA continuation of the dramas that befall William Warwick， his family， and cohorts。 Fast-paced and entertaining。 You will already know the characters so picking up where you left off is an easy task。 This one flows right into the narrative from the conclusion of #4。。。。 like one seamless read。

I've not read a Jeffrey Archer book for years， but having seen him speak at a recent event， I was curious to know if they were as addictive as they were when I started reading them over 40 years ago。 Next in Line is part of a series。 However， it worked fine as a stand-alone book， and I rushed through it， finishing it in a matter of days。 Twists and turns and a bounty of double-crossings come thick and fast。 I felt engaged with the characters， enjoyed the nostalgia of the timing， and it's a book I've not read a Jeffrey Archer book for years， but having seen him speak at a recent event， I was curious to know if they were as addictive as they were when I started reading them over 40 years ago。 Next in Line is part of a series。 However， it worked fine as a stand-alone book， and I rushed through it， finishing it in a matter of days。 Twists and turns and a bounty of double-crossings come thick and fast。 I felt engaged with the characters， enjoyed the nostalgia of the timing， and it's a book I'd describe as a proper romp。 It's not one that will stay with me for a long time， but it is highly entertaining， and sometimes that's all you want from a book。So the answer is yes， Archer still has it！ 。。。more

My 2nd book in the William Warwick series which I enjoyed as much as the last one （Book 4 and Book 5）。There is so much going on with the Scotland Yard team and their intervention in the Royal Protection team， Miles Faulkner is the nemesis in Williams side and his wife is now partnering up with Faulkner's ex-wife Christina， the cat and mouse game of Faulkner's art collections and his millions is quite amusing。 Each thinking they have got one over each other only to find they have been outwitted。 My 2nd book in the William Warwick series which I enjoyed as much as the last one （Book 4 and Book 5）。There is so much going on with the Scotland Yard team and their intervention in the Royal Protection team， Miles Faulkner is the nemesis in Williams side and his wife is now partnering up with Faulkner's ex-wife Christina， the cat and mouse game of Faulkner's art collections and his millions is quite amusing。 Each thinking they have got one over each other only to find they have been outwitted。 The deviousness of the barrister BW。I just can't wait to find out what will happen next。。。。 。。。more

A twist in the taleOnce again he does it。 Unfailingly at that he comes out with gems。 Superb plot。 Twists in the tail at unexpected moments makes it a compulsory 1 or 2 sessions read。 The sub plots are entertaining too。 My only problem is it takes books to come to the present day and leaving readers guessing as to what next and by the time the next appears one has to tie up ends and remember what had happened。
