Synopsis

 If Danny Cartwright had proposed to Beth Wilson on any other day, he would not have been arrested and charged with the murder of his best friend. But when the prosecution witnesses happen to be a group of four upper-crust college friends—a barrister, a popular actor, an aristocrat, and the youngest partner in an established firm's history—who is going to believe Danny's side of the story?

Danny is sentenced to twenty-two years and sent to Belmarsh prison, the highest-security jail in the land, from where no inmate has ever escaped. But Spencer Craig, Lawrence Davenport, Gerald Payne, and Toby Mortimer all underestimate Danny's determination to seek revenge—and the extent to which his fiancee Beth will go in pursuit of justice.

I tried this book as something different. This turned out to be a book I could not put down. It's got a great story, great writing, and a great ending. It's a book you don't want to miss. Best I've read in a long time.

I read a lot of books and enjoy all kinds of fiction. A Prisoner Of Birth has to be one of the best I've ever read. Archer make the characters come alive for the reader. I couldn't put it down for the last fourth of the book because I needed to find out how it ended. Don't hesitate to get this book and read it, there is no doubt in my mind that anyone who reads it will enjoy it.
