Not a Penny More, Not a Penny Less

Jeffrey Archer

What happens when four strangers lose their life savings to the same swindler and decide to steal it back—not a penny more, not a penny less?

Not a Penny More, Not a Penny Less is Jeffrey Archer’s electrifying debut novel, a classic tale of ingenious revenge. The victims are an unlikely team: an Oxford academic, a society physician, a French art dealer, and a British lord. They have nothing in common except Harvey Metcalfe, the ruthless tycoon who swindled them out of a million dollars overnight.

Realizing the law can't touch him, they decide to take matters into their own hands. From the casinos of Monte Carlo to the high-stakes races at Ascot, they devise a brilliant four-part trap to reclaim exactly what they lost. Fast-paced and full of twists, it is the ultimate game of cat and mouse where the prey doesn't even know he's being hunted.
