โฆ Synopsis
The "Clifton Chronicles" is Jeffrey Archer's most ambitious
work in four decades as an international bestselling author. The epic tale of
Harry Clifton's life begins in 1920, with the chilling words, 'I was told that
my father was killed in the war'. But it will be another twenty years before
Harry discovers how his father really died, which will only lead him to
question: who was his father? Is he the son of Arthur Clifton, a stevedore who
worked in Bristol docks, or the first born son of a scion of West Country
society, whose family owns a shipping line? "Only Time Will Tell" covers the
years from 1920 to 1940, and includes a cast of memorable characters that "The
Times" has compared to "The Forsyte Saga". Volume one takes us from the ravages
of the Great War to the outbreak of the Second World War, when Harry must decide
whether to take up a place at Oxford, or join the navy and go to war with
Hitler's Germany. In Jeffrey Archer's masterful hands, the reader is taken on a
journey that they won't want to end, and when you turn the last page of this
unforgettable yarn, you will be faced with a dilemma that neither you, nor Harry
Clifton could have anticipated.
