False Impression is a pacy thriller with a winding plot centred around the murder of an elderly lady the day before the bombing of the twin towers. As the investigation gets underway it becomes apparent that her killing is linked to a priceless Van Gogh painting that she was on the verge of selling. As the mystery unfolds we are taken from New york to London to Bucharest and on to Tokyo until everything becomes clear in a sleepy English village. If you're a fan of Jeffery Archer, you certainly won't be disappointed. This title is also available as an Audio book, read by Anton Lesser as either a CD or a cassette.
'Probably the greatest storyteller of our age' - The Mail on Sunday
Would you risk your life for a painting? Globe-spanning and truly page-turning, False Impression is a compulsive thriller from Jeffrey Archer, bestselling author of The Clifton Chronicles and the William Warwick novels.
The night before the attacks of 9/11, an older, aristocratic woman is brutally murdered in her country home. It takes all the resources of both the FBI and Interpol to deduce the motive for her death: a priceless Van Gogh painting. It takes a courageous, determined young woman - who was in the North Tower as the first plane crashed - to take on both sides of the law and avenge the woman's death.
After 9/11, Anna Petrescu is missing, presumed dead. But she is alive, and uses her new status to escape from America - only to be pursued across the world, from Toronto to London, Hong Kong, Tokyo and Bucharest. But it is only upon her return to New York that the mystery unfolds . . .
Why are so many people willing to risk their own lives and others to own the Van Gogh 'Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear'?
