Forsyth, Frederick – The Veteran
A collection of clever, interesting and absorbing short stories by a clever and intelligent writer.
Each of the stories in this collection left me thinking for hours afterwards (unlike the short stories in “False Impression”, by another author – which left me retching for hours on end afterwards!)
There is intricate detail, not only in the research of the subject, but in the clarity and choice of words that the author uses to enchant and entertain us.
I really can’t recommend this book too highly – If you been suffering a diet of Dan Brown and Jeffrey Archer, this will seem like a Gourmet meal cooked by a Michelin 3 starred chef!
All the best
