![]() It was Jeffery Archer’s first book but thank heavens not his last. The story was well paced, and laugh-out-loud funny. The book was primarily in England of the 1960’s with a few jaunts to other locations in Europe. Then one of them got angry and began to plan. I clutched the book to my chest in an effort to hug him as he wondered how he would ever face his family again. There was this one character, a minor nobleman, who had used his inheritance in a bid to prove to his family that he was not a complete failure. I ached with them as they dealt with the shock of their massive loss. I was taken into the mind of each man as he dreamed of the riches he had been promised. They had had their life savings taken away from them by an unscrupulous businessman, and the law said there was nothing that could be done. I dove in.įrom the first page, I was transported into their world. Moreover, as I had said, I needed an escape. The back described the book as being about “a group of men duped by a callous businessman, who decided to get back the exact sum they lost to said man, not a penny more, not a penny less”. “Not a Penny More, Not a Penny Less by Jeffery Archer”, the cover said. ![]() It was a small book light, not up to 300 pages. ![]() I was somewhere I would have preferred not to be and I was looking for a way to escape. ![]()
