A villain/bully in the hostel, and the girl's father who would go to any length to prevent the marriage. At the same time, it looks as though England may go to war with Germany, and Harry must consider what this means for his future. The fifth book In his new William Warwick novels - the first of which, Nothing Ventured, was published in 2019 - is NEXT IN LINE which will be out in September 2022. Lediglich ein paar kleine Spannungsflauten drücken meine Bewertung um einen Stern, denn es wurde zu oft ein und die selbe Geschichte aus verschiedenen Perspektiven erzählt.

Meanwhile, Harry campaigns for the release of author Anatoly Babakov who has been imprisoned in Siberia, and may put his life in danger in the process .The novel is set in Bristol, England, from 1919 to 1940 and centers on Harry Clifton, a young boy destined to follow in the footsteps of his father and uncle and work on the docks until a new world is opened up to him. Ambitious and addictive, Only Time Will Tell is the first novel in international bestseller Jeffrey Archer's the Clifton Chronicles begins the epic tale of Harry Clifton, a working-class boy from the docks of Bristol.

It may sound strange, but: Archer's novels are not quite thriller, not quite family drama and not quite history novel, and yet, it's ALL of it! I also think Old Jack Tar is my favourite character in the book, though I don't want to give anything away as to why that is. Jeffrey Archer hits it out of the park with this epic tale of a young boy trying, with the help of his friends and family, to make his life something no less than extraordinary. On ne peut que se précipiter pour lire la suite de ses ouvrages afin de savoir s’il existe une justice immanente.

While Clifton presumes Arthur Clifton died on the battlefields, the truth is known to a select few that he was involved in a horrific workplace incident, at the hands of Hugo Barrington.

But then an unexpected gift wins him a scholarship to an exclusive boys’ school, and his life will never be the same again. He reminds me of someone I once knew actually, just in a more extreme way, with much more money at his disposal! Each character's story fills in gaps left in previous issues because either that character didn't think it was that important or because the previous narrator didn't know.All in all, the beginning of this novel intrigued me, but having now finished it I don't think I'm going to continue reading this long family saga. A heart warming story set back in the early 1900’s which follows a young lad named Harry Clifton as he faces the many obstacles throughout his life’s journey to manhood. Jeffrey has served five years in the House of Commons as a Member of Parliament, and thirty years as a Member of the House of Lords. Especially the beginning of this historical family saga had me intrigued because it tells enchantingly about these three boys and their struggles on a boarding school. It's worth mentioning that if you have read As The Crow Flies, you have come close to the main plot elements of this series.
