The Fourth Estate - Paperback

From "one of the top ten storytellers in the world" (Los Angeles Times), Jeffrey Archer's The Fourth Estate sees two power-hungry men prepared to risk everything in a battle to control the largest newspaper empire in the world.

Richard Armstrong narrowly escaped Hitler's atrocities in Eastern Europe on his courage and his wits--skills that served him well in peacetime. Having turned a struggling Berlin newspaper into a success story seemingly overnight, Armstrong made a name for himself--and more than a few enemies along the way...

Meanwhile, young Keith Townsend enters the international arena, armed with a world-class education and a sense of entitlement to match. Charged with growing his father's newspaper business into a global media force, he and Armstrong are bound to become sworn rivals--until they arrive at the edge of collapse and will do whatever it takes to stay alive in the game...or die trying.
