About this audiobook
From master storyteller Frederick Forsyth—best-selling author of The Day of the Jackal and The Odessa File--comes this collection of five suspenseful gems.
Justice does not always come easily, and it comes in many guises. On the seedier side of London, a shopkeeper witnesses a brutal beating in “The Veteran” (read by Patrick Macnee). In a better neighborhood, a famous London auction house is scammed in “The Art of the Matter” (also read by Macnee). The additional stories recount a persecution in 16th century Sienna (“The Miracle”—read by Christopher Cazenove), a mid-flight drug smuggling heist (“The Citizen”—also read by Macnee), and the lone survivor of Custer's Last Stand (“Whispering Wind”—read by Bruce Boxleitner). Mixing together the elements of great suspense—revenge, mystery, murder and deception—this collection is Forsyth at his best.
