The Best Heist and Con Artist Books, recommended by Jeffrey Archer
In 1974, British politician Jeffrey Archer lost all his money in a con. As he tried to dig himself out of the financial hole, he wrote his first novel, Not a Penny More, Not a Penny Less, about four men who fall victim to a stock market scam and take revenge on the con man behind it. The novel has never been out of print since its publication. As it celebrates its 50th anniversary, the bestselling author chooses his favourite books about heists and con artists, both fictional and all too real.
