Acerca de esta escucha
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.

From Frederick Forsyth, the grand master of international suspense, comes his most intriguing story ever - his own. For more than 40 years, Frederick Forsyth has been writing extraordinary real-world novels of intrigue, from the groundbreaking The Day of the Jackal to the prescient The Kill List. Whether writing about the murky world of arms dealers, the shadowy Nazi underground movement, or the intricacies of worldwide drug cartels, every plot has been chillingly plausible because every detail has been minutely researched.

After his father's heart attack in 1984, Peter Godwin began a series of pilgrimages back to Zimbabwe, the land of his birth, from Manhattan, where he now lives. On these frequent visits to check on his elderly parents, he bore witness to Zimbabwe's dramatic spiral downward into the jaws of violent chaos, presided over by an increasingly enraged dictator. And yet long after their comfortable lifestyle had been shattered and millions were fleeing, his parents refuse to leave, steadfast in their allegiance to the failed state that has been their adopted home for 50 years.

After his father's heart attack in 1984, Peter Godwin began a series of pilgrimages back to Zimbabwe, the land of his birth, from Manhattan, where he now lives. On these frequent visits to check on his elderly parents, he bore witness to Zimbabwe's dramatic spiral downward into the jaws of violent chaos, presided over by an increasingly enraged dictator. And yet long after their comfortable lifestyle had been shattered and millions were fleeing, his parents refuse to leave, steadfast in their allegiance to the failed state that has been their adopted home for 50 years.

“In wartime,” Winston Churchill wrote, “truth is so precious that she should always be attended by a bodyguard of lies.” For Britain’s counterintelligence operations, this meant finding the unlikeliest agent imaginable - a history professor named Alfred Vicary, handpicked by Churchill himself to expose a highly dangerous, but unknown, traitor. The Nazis, however, have also chosen an unlikely agent.

From Frederick Forsyth, the grand master of international suspense, comes his most intriguing story ever - his own. For more than 40 years, Frederick Forsyth has been writing extraordinary real-world novels of intrigue, from the groundbreaking The Day of the Jackal to the prescient The Kill List. Whether writing about the murky world of arms dealers, the shadowy Nazi underground movement, or the intricacies of worldwide drug cartels, every plot has been chillingly plausible because every detail has been minutely researched.

Wonderful Stories
Frederick Forsyth is a superior author and the narrators of these 5 stories were also superior. These stories were not short stories, as the total length was over 12 hours. As Mr. Forsyth has matured, his story telling just gets better and better.
I loved the twisty endings of the first 4. Spoiler Alert: I cried throughout the last story and it did not have the happy ending I would have liked, but it did have a twisty ending. Raising a child by a single mother is hard.

Masterful
Five brilliant short stories by the master, Frederic Forsyth. Highly recommended. Five stories are each completely different, but all have the Forsyth hallmarks of well-researched and gripping stories.

Strong collection of stories
Really enjoyed this collection of shorter works by Forsyth. He proves once again why he's one of the great storytellers of our time.

Engrossing!
I thought I had the best of the best with Tom Clancy and LeCarre’. I’m so glad to have discovered Forsyth. He’s right up there with the best of them, at least in my humble opinion.

Great narrative from a seasoned writer. I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes several good yarns!,
That there were not more stories as the caliber of the tales was very good.
