Story
William Warwick has always wanted to be a detective, and decides, much to his father’s dismay, that rather than become a lawyer like his father, Sir Julian Warwick QC, and his sister, Grace, he will join London’s Metropolitan Police Force. After graduating from university, William begins a career that will define his life: from his early months on the beat under the watchful eye of his first mentor, Constable Fred Yates, to his first high-stakes case as a fledgling detective in Scotland Yard’s arts and antiquities squad.

Story
The epic tale of Harry Clifton's life begins in 1920, with the words "I was told that my father was killed in the war." A dock worker in Bristol, Harry never knew his father, but he learns about life on the docks from his uncle, who expects Harry to join him at the shipyard once he's left school. But then an unexpected gift wins him a scholarship to an exclusive boys' school, and his life will never be the same again. As he enters into adulthood, Harry finally learns how his father really died, but the awful truth only leads him to question, was he even his father?

Story
Adam Scott listens to the reading of his father's will, aware that the contents can only be meagre. The Colonel, after all, had nothing to leave - except a letter he had never opened himself, a letter that can only bring further disgrace to the family name. Against his mother's advice, Adam opens the letter, and immediately realizes his life can never be the same again. The contents leave him with no choice but to follow a course his father would have described as a matter of honour.
Written by: Jeffrey Archer
Publisher's Summary
"'Turn a Blind Eye' is a highly enjoyable episode in this ongoing series - in no small measure due to the talented Blagden’s versatile and spot-on vocal interpretations of each character in the large cast." (NJ.com)
Turn a Blind Eye is the third installment in the gripping story of Detective Inspector William Warwick, by the master storyteller and number one New York Times best-selling author of the Clifton Chronicles.
Newly promoted to Detective Inspector, William Warwick is tasked with a dangerous new line of work, to go undercover and expose crime of another kind: corruption at the heart of the Metropolitan Police Force. Along with detectives Rebecca Pankhurst and Nicky Bailey, his team is focused on following Detective Jerry Summers, a young officer whose lifestyle exceeds his income. But the investigation risks being compromised when Nicky falls for Summers.
Meanwhile, notorious drug baron Assem Rashidi goes on trial, defended by Booth Watson QC, while William’s father Sir Julian and sister Grace lead the prosecution case. And William’s wife Beth, now a new mother to twins, makes a surprising new friend in Christina Faulkner - the ex-wife of William’s former rival, criminal financier Miles - who has not only turned over a new leaf, but also has a new-found source of income when Faulkner dies suddenly of a heart attack and she stands to be sole inheritor of his estate.
As the undercover officers start to draw the threads together, William realizes that the corruption may go deeper still, and more of his colleagues than he first thought might be willing to turn a blind eye.

Another Great Archer Novel
I have listened to the previous two books in the series. The series had a short but a good start, the second book was not as good as the first. So I was worried about this one, but no worries the story is excellent. It will make you look forward to the next book as well as giving you closure in this one.
There are always bunch of "googlie"s in Archer novels and this one surely has its share. I dont need to mention the characters because this is a Sir Archer novel for God's Sake. You want to be one of the good guys and the bad is very common very familiar in everyday life.
My only question is how come West Ham Soccer Club was not mentioned in this book?
Also sometimes narration kills a good book but George Blagden is the reason why this book is not just very good but excellent.

Can't wait for the next book in the series
I really enjoy the narrator, I thought he did an excellent job. As to the book itself, I am a Archer fan from way back and I love this new series and can't wait to read the next book. William and Beth are excellent characters, as well as the other members of William's team. I particularly like Grace and Claire.

Not Bad
I am giving just 3 stars because this book is not up to the level of some of Archer’s other book. I found it slow and disappointing for much of the book. It had a few interesting things happen as the story developed but overall it was just average. Perhaps I expect too much.
