But have you got enough readies?" demanded Bernie. "'Cause basement flats don't come cheap, even in the East End." The plot and characters were so well developed. It had so many twists and turns. It was a little predictable in that it's a modern day version of The Count of Monte Cristo, but it was done in such an interesting way I didn't mind. And it's even better than the original classic, if that's possible. As a friend very rightly put it… ’A Prisoner of Birth’ has all the makings of a Bollywood Masala Movie.

Not a chance," said Bernie raising his glass. "You've only got me this time. To long life and West Ham winning the cup." The best part about the book is the way Jeffrey Archer used the beauty of the English language to weave the story. A few hours later Danny is arrested for murder and later is sentenced to twenty-two years in prison, thanks to irrefutable testimony from Spencer, the prosecution's main witness.

And if you think I'm gonna call you guv when you take over from my old man," said Bernie, breaking into his thoughts, "you can forget it." Danny didn't comment. They are both oaks, even if they were planted in different forests. But then, m’lord, we all suffer in our different ways from being prisoners of birth. Beth didn't protest; after all, Bernie was not only her brother, but Danny's oldest friend, and he'd probably already asked him to be his best man. I want to leave," said Beth firmly. "I don't need a bunch of public-school snobs ruining my engagement party."

In fact, among the 500 novels I've read, I've only read: Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code, Angels and Demons and The Lost Symbol;Ken Folett's The Eye of the Needle, Hornet's Nest and Whiteout; John Le Carre's The Spy Who Came in From Cold; Ian Fleming's Casino Royale; Vince Flynn's Protect and Defend; John Grisham's The Appeal and Robert Ludlum's The Ambler Warning. Every character in the book is portrayed beautifully and they are bound to stay with you long after you have finished reading it. Not even once would you feel bored or want to skip any part of the book.urn:lcp:prisonerofbirth0000arch_f1c2:epub:5b99cb98-d7f9-45ec-a61b-6eba3258ec4e Foldoutcount 0 Identifier prisonerofbirth0000arch_f1c2 Identifier-ark ark:/13960/t57f4ts50 Invoice 1652 Isbn 9780330464062 She tried to look surprised, but wasn't all that convincing as she had already decided that they were going to be married when they were at secondary school. However, she was amazed when Danny fell on one knee in the middle of the crowded restaurant.

Dream on," said Bernie. "Just because Danny boy's shaved and washed his hair for a change, don't think he's gonna make a habit of it, sis. No chance. Just remember that your future 'usband works in the East End, not the City." Google ) المثيرة للضحك، و دار النشر التي لم تُكلف نفسها في تعيين مُصحح لغوي، الأخطاء النحوية و الإملائية و الأسلوبية كانت كابوسًا استمر طيلة سبعمائة صفحة! طبعة سيئة لأقصى حد و لا أنصح بها بتاتًا.For me, among all of those, A Prisoner of Birth is one of the best, maybe comparable to those works by Le Carre and Fleming. Archer is definitely better than Flynn, Ludlum and Grisham. Archer is said to be the British equivalent of the American Grisham. I do not agree with this. For me, Archer is better than Grisham. He'd better have, 'cause gettin' spliced don't come cheap," said Bernie. "To start with, where you goin' to live?"

"It's not every day that my little sister gets engaged to my best mate. Another bottle!" he shouted. And when the four prosecution witnesses are a barrister, a popular actor, an aristocrat and the youngest partner in an established firm’s history, who is going to believe his side of the story?
