Ett uteblivet telegram, en noga planerad diamantkupp och ett försäkringsbedrägeri i den högre klassen. Allt det här, och mycket mer, finns samlat i denna spännande novellsamling från berättargeniet Jeffrey Archer. Historierna har han samlat på sig under flera års resande och många bygger på kända händelser, medan andra är helt och hållet fiktiva. Gemensamt är att samtliga noveller avslutas med oväntad vändning - något som får läsaren att brista ut i ett "AHA".

Vad händer med den unga detektiven från Neapel som reser till Italien för att ta reda på vem som dödade borgmästaren? Och den pretentiösa skolpojken som upptäcker hur hans far egentligen kommit över sina rikedomar? Eller de två unga kvinnor under 1930-talet, varav en hamnar i trubbel när hon liftar och den andra dristar sig till att utmana männen på sitt universitet, med oanade konsekvenser? Novellerna i Jeffrey Archers "Kvitt eller dubbelt" är inspirerade av de människor han mött, de historier han stött på och de länder han besökt de senaste tio åren.

O volume final da trilogia de diários da prisão escritos por Jeffrey cobre o período de sua transferência de uma prisão de segurança média, HMP Wayland, até sua eventual soltura em liberdade condicional em julho de 2003. Essa obra inclui um relato chocante do período traumático em que ele esteve na famosa prisão de Lincoln e dos eventos que levaram ao seu encarceramento nesse local, e também expõe severamente um sistema que está próximo de seu ponto de ruptura.
