About this deal

Goldwell Keratin Conditioning and Smoothing service. This is a perfect solution for smooth and manageable hair without frizz for up to 5 months. And that's all I have to say about that (insert Forrest Gump voice here- fittingly he was the type of storyteller I profess Archer of being). As you well know, Vladimir, only party members live on the first three floors. But I’m sure that once you’ve joined the KGB, you’ll come down in the world.” In America, Alex and his mother are dependent on the apparent kindness of a Russian named Dimitri, a man Alex suspects to be a spy. But Alex’s biggest problem, apart from pursuing his dream of wealth while attending NYU, is the draft and Vietnam, a war that will haunt him for the rest of his life. This being America, Elena does not open a posh restaurant, but puts together a chain of pizza parlors. On the same side, yes,” said his father, “but only because they considered us the lesser of two evils.” Alexander gave this some thought as his father stood up. “Shall we have a game of chess while we’re waiting?” he asked. Alexander nodded. His favorite part of the day. “You set up the board while I go and wash my hands.”

I read very few political thrillers, but for Archer I make an exception. From the beginning one is aware that they are in the hands of a author who has perfected his craft, has a firm grasp of his characters and the plot. His prose is written with clarity, his storyline flows seamlessly. What an unusual but perceptive, history in the making, storyline this turned out to be. I trusted that all along the end would expose the means. Without spoiling it, I have to say that’s not what happened.Hearts It is a simple game a lot of us play to make a decision… Heads you Win - Tails you Lose… But do you ever wonder if the decision was the right one after all? Well in this story we find out….

Moroccanoil’s, passion is empowering beautiful transformations. They started with the original Moroccanoil Treatment which revolutionized the haircare industry. They built their reputation on positive word of mouth from runways to salons to editorial spreads. Their antioxidant infused, nutrient rich, innovative formulas are unmatched and provide dramatic results. That is why salon-exclusive Moroccanoil is preferred by professionals and consumers alike — because their products simply work. The ending has a twist too, but to me, it still didn't clearly explain the logic behind the first twist. We are a friendly salon with experienced staff using professional hair products and we are dedicated to giving you the very best service, amazing hair and a great experience. I always leave HEADS YOU WIN feeling great. Sally is brilliant at advising on highlights and guiding me when I fancy a change of style. All the staff are friendly and make you feel very welcome. They reacted to the COVID-19 crisis so well and the measures they put in place are very reassuring but do not take away from the ‘treat’ element a visit to the hairdressers should deliver. We often go as a family and my daughter and I attended a session covering how to do various braids and up-styles which was terrific and useful. I whole heartedly recommend this salon. “ Because if Alexander is to win that scholarship and go to Moscow, he will have to be fluent in the language of our enemies.”Use italics (lyric) and bold (lyric) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part Another excellent novel from Jeffrey Archer. A gripping stand-alone, it features rich characters, excellent prose, and believable dialogue. And quite the finale. No. I believe in damned hard work and the following maxim: if you have energy and talent you’ll be a king; If you have energy and no talent you are still a prince; but if you have talent and no energy, you will be a pauper. The book really kept my interest and I really enjoyed it. I only gave 3 stars because the last chapters really confused me. Who was who? Is there a book two? Was Sasha and Alexander two different families or just the same person using two different names playing both sides of the coin? Archer has merged real life incidents and politics so well with this fictional character that you begin to wonder if this is fiction at all or a true story! His knowledge and grasp on politics and his master story telling make an immensely satisfying read. The narration makes you want to keep reading and get lost in the plot. This one is another winner by Archer. Highly recommended!

In a single moment, a double twist decides Alexander’s future. During an epic tale, spanning two continents and thirty years, we follow Alexander through triumph and defeat as he sets out on parallel lives, as Alex in New York and Sasha in London. Sure his villains are a little one-dimensional, mainly motivated by greed, but I don't care. Show me a villain who isn't. And greed comes in many forms. There are people in here that would go penniless just to see someone else's demise. And yes! There are a lot of moments in this story where the mystery could have been savored just a tad bit longer, but hey... Archer understands we have things to do and lives to get on with. Heads you Win is a typical Jeffrey Archer book with a small twist. Instead of two super achieving protagonists whose paths cross (ala Kane and Abel, Sons of Fortune, Clifton Chronicles etc) - we have one character Alexander whose life path, decided by a toss of coin, diverges. Alexander escapes from the clutches of KGB and he gets to choose between America and Britain. News Picador Africa to publish a new book by award-winning and critically acclaimed author Ivan Vladislavić in March 2024. 10/08/2023Jeffrey Archer! Από το πρώτο βιβλίο που διάβασα μέχρι και το τελευταίο. Το Κορόνα Κερδίζεις είναι ευφυές, ευρηματικό, συγκλονιστικό! Robert as has been a stylist and Rey'ne a salon coordinator since opening in 1980. Surrounding ourselves with like minded professionals,offering quality services at a fair price, and using the very best support products are the virtues of our success. I think I would only feel comfortable recommending this book to readers that have not read The Clifton Chronicles before. As for the ending, well, I cannot spoil it for you because I am not sure what happened; I cannot tell you who lives and who dies although the final line reveals the identity of one character who has been alluded to throughout. It might be churlishness on my part, but I just did not see that coming. Perhaps Archer was being just a little more profound in trying to suggest we cannot escape our fate, that wherever the path of life takes us, the ultimate destination is pre-ordained – not, it has to be said, an original concept.
