The Clifton Chronicles (Set of 3 Books) : Only Time Will Tell / The Sins of the Father / Best Kept Secret (Paperback).
The first volume, Only Time Will Tell, takes you from the time of Harry`s birth to winning a place at Oxford University. War is declared on Germany just as he enters University. Harry is left with the unenviable choice of whether to remain at Oxford and complete his studies or like his father, who he believes died in the first World War, join up and serve his country.
In Best Kept Secret When the General Election is called, Giles Barrington has to defend his seat in the House of Commons and is horrified to discover who the Conservatives select to stand against him. But it is Sebastian Clifton, Harry and Emmas son, who ultimately influences his uncles fate.
In 1957, Sebastian wins a scholarship to Cambridge, and a new generation of the Clifton family march onto the page. After Sebastian is expelled from school, he unwittingly becomes caught up in an international art fraud involving a Rodin statue that is worth far more than the sum it raises at auction. Does he become a millionaire? Does he go to Cambridge? Is his life in danger? In Volume Three, Sins of the Father Tom Bradshaw is arrested for first degree murder. He stands accused of killing his brother. The only way for him to prove his innocence would be to reveal his true identity something that he has sworn never to do in order to protect the woman he loves.
Meanwhile, the young woman in question travels to New York, leaving their son behind in England, having decided she`ll do whatever it takes to find the man she was to marry unwilling to believe that he died at sea. The only proof she has is a letter. A letter that has remained unopened on a mantelpiece in Bristol for over a year.
In Jeffrey Archers epic novel, family loyalties are stretched to their limits as secrets unravel and the story moves from the backstreets of Bristol to the boardrooms of Manhattan.
