Publisher Description
‘Probably the greatest storyteller of our age’ – The Mail on Sunday
Detective Sergeant William Warwick is tasked with a dangerous new line of work: to go undercover and expose corruption at the heart of the Metropolitan Police Force.
His team focuses on Detective Sergeant Jerry Summers, a young officer living an extravagant lifestyle. But Summers develops a personal relationship with a WPC on William’s team and the investigation hangs in the balance.
As his undercover officers draw the threads together, William realizes that the corruption may go far higher than his initial assessment, and that more of his colleagues than he thought possible might be willing to turn a blind eye . . .
In the third instalment in the life of Detective William Warwick, following on from Hidden in Plain Sight, international bestseller Jeffrey Archer once again displays his mastery in the art of storytelling. This can also be read as a standalone story.
Praise for Jeffrey Archer:
‘If there were a Nobel Prize for storytelling, Archer would win’ – The Daily Telegraph
‘An unputdownable, fast-paced story with well-crafted characters and an enthralling climax’ – Candis
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Detective William Warwick continues his rise through the ranks of London’s Metropolitan Police in the third instalment of Jeffrey Archer’s compelling series. When a new case requires William to go undercover in his own department, Archer skilfully explores the different ideological motives that drive people to corruption, or—perhaps worse—to turn a blind eye to it. Combining the trial of a drug baron, the death of a criminal financier, William’s own investigations and his wife’s social circle, the story is vast in scale and ambition, culminating in an expertly paced and gripping final chapter. Turn A Blind Eye offers all the virtues of Archer’s most famous stories, set against the thoroughly enjoyable backdrop of London in the late ’80s.
