Summary

Connor Fitzgerald is the CIA’s most deadly assassin. On the brink of his retirement, he is sent to Russia for one last hit. Except this isn’t just another job. After a fall out between the CIA and the White House over the assassination of a prominent Colombian politician, his boss is now using the Russian Mafia to cover her tracks.

Fitzgerald is not going to St Petersburg to kill, he’s going to die.

A page-turning, political thriller about espionage and betrayal by the acclaimed British writer, Jeffrey Archer.

The Eleventh Commandment is narrated by Michael Brandon, most famous for playing James Dempsey in the 1980’s television crime drama, Dempsey and Makepeace. His extensive theatre career spans Broadway and the West End, where he played Jerry Springer in Jerry Springer: the Opera for the National Theatre.

Jeffrey Archer is a bestselling British author and former politician. He was educated at Oxford and went on to become a Member of Parliament, the deputy chair of the Conservative Party as well as sitting in the House of Lords. His political career ended in scandal and he turned to writing, where he has been published in over 250 countries.

He is perhaps most famous for the Clifton Chronicles and his blockbuster Kane and Abel which was number one on the New York Time’s Bestseller list and inspired a popular miniseries starring Peter Strauss and Sam Neill.

After he was imprisoned for perjury in 2001, he wrote his highly acclaimed non-fiction series, Prison Diaries - Hell, Purgatory and Heaven - which were inspired by his experiences and loosely structured around Dante’s Inferno.

Good story

I’ve enjoyed the majority of Jeffrey Archers books and this one was no different. Other than a couple of accents that weren’t very convincing a complicated storyline that came together at the end. I would recommend this audiobook to all.

NOT ONE OF HIS BEST

Being a fan of the author I had high hopes but they were soon dashed as I was not impressed by the narrator just because you’re famous doesn’t mean you’re any good.
The beginning was difficult to follow and I listened to another book and went back to this and managed to finish it. My advice don’t bother.

JA - this has just got to be one his best

As soon as I started listening to The Eleventh Commandment it was obvious it was written when Archer was at his best, completely different style from the newer books.,Cracking story line, extremely well written and narrated, the sort of book you don't want to put down. The narrator's performance is top drawer

Mixed story - Mixed recording

So let’s start with the fact the audio appears to change half way through.

The story is a little garbled and doesn’t make a huge deal of sense at parts.

Glads it’s free as I think paying for it would be a rip off.

Delighted with this free offering and enjoyed the story. Some parts stretched the imagination but overall it held my interest and I looked forward to hearing more. Would recommend it.
