A Matter of Honor is a high-octane Cold War thriller that hurtles from the corridors of Whitehall to the shadowy backstreets of Geneva and Moscow, chronicling one man's desperate quest to uncover a secret so explosive that every superpower wants him silenced before he can reveal it.\n\nJeffrey Archer, the master of the page-turning narrative, constructs a tightly wound plot that uncovers the treacherous underbelly of Cold War geopolitics, where loyalty is a commodity and survival demands ruthlessness. True to his signature style, Archer balances breakneck pacing with richly drawn characters whose motivations are as morally ambiguous as the world they inhabit. Published in 1986 at the height of Cold War tensions, the novel resonates with an authenticity that blurs the line between fiction and political reality — leaving the reader to wonder just how many such secrets remain buried to this day.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50609712038107,"sku":"2026100010796-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/09e94b51-2588-4189-a159-383ffa66afcc.png?v=1791764759","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100010796-secondhand-a-matter-of-honor","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
