Advantages: Great story and plot Disadvantages: Too short!!
...there was a code of honour and what happens if you dont go by the code and how in this book, archer manages to mesh everything together so seamlessly
This book revolves around the declaration of independence, THE key document of the USA, and how its stolen, reclaimed, stolen again and so on and so forth.
I wont tell you anymore as it would spoil the book, but if you like a book with twists and turns, that will keep you guessing then this is the ...

Advantages: fast paced, intertwingling suspense Disadvantages: resembles early 90's action flick
......Of thieves and robbers, villains and wise men. This one would not let you leave your seat even for a moment.! Pick it up and start reading and you're bound to leave it only when its done. Great read for fans new to Archer books, and for those who've already read a couple..well we all know, no Archer book can be without cause. The world has given rise to a new kind of terror...Saddam Hussein!
And humiliation of the U.S is what ...

Advantages: Great book Disadvantages: Based to much around the US
This Jeffery Archer starts like all the others, various different people in various different places all over the world who you orginally think could never be connected but you slowly realise they are.

To sum up Archer is a great author and also manages to keep the pages turning, the question is who would pay $100,000,000 to humiliate America, the answer is .... ...

Who would pay a billion dollars to humiliate America? The time, 1993. The place, Washington DC. Of the adversaries in the Gulf War, the sole survivor is Saddam Hussein. And Saddam is planning a revenge so diabolical that the United States will be left with no choice but to retaliate ...'A fast-moving intrigue ...a cracking good read. This is the first novel I have read by Jeffrey Archer; it will not be the last' - "Mail on Sunday". 'Back in top form ...Archer's imagination at its most sublime ...an entertaining, pacey page-turner' - "Sunday Times". 'Few are more famous than Archer for keeping the pages turning ...an extravagant romp - possibly his best' - "The Times."
