An elderly man who doesn't know which of his relations to leave his fortune to, declares himself bankrupt to find out who really cares about him - only to be surprised by the results. A man listens in on a conversation on a crossed line, which changes his whole life. A South African, a long-standing believer in apartheid, has a change of heart. A criminal who wants the police to catch him so he can live off his ill-gotten gains. Two old friends find themselves on opposite sides in a murder case. A Henry Moore statue disappears and reappears in a different form. A study of seven men, each of whom believes he should have the job of the man immediately above him. This collection is Archer's finest to date. *** Quantity Available: 1. Category: Fiction; Short Stories; ISBN: 0006514693. ISBN/EAN: 9780006514695. Inventory No: 09114049.. 9780006514695
