The Eleventh Commandment
Connor Fitzgerald is the professional's professional.
Holder of the Medal of Honor. Devoted family man. Servant of his
country. The CIA's most deadly weapon. But for the past 28 years,
Fitzgerald has been leading a double life. And only days from
his retirement from the Agency, he comes across an enemy even
he cannot handle. The enemy is his own boss, helen Dexter, the
Director of the CIA. And she has only one purpose: to destroy
him.
Meanwhile, the United States is faced with
an equally formidable foe: a new Russian President, determined
to force a military confrontation between the two superpowers.
Ranging from the Oval Office in the White House to a Russian Mafia
boss's luxurious hideaway outside St Petersburg, The
Eleventh Commandment sets new standards in contemporary
thriller writing. Jeffrey Archer scoops his readers up in the
first paragraph, and doesn't let them go until the last. The pace,
the ingenuity, the twists, intertwined with a moving love story,
show Britain's bestselling writer at the peak of his page-turning
powers.
