Heads You Win is the incredible and thrilling novel by the master storyteller and bestselling author of the Clifton Chronicles and Kane and Abel, Jeffrey Archer.
Leningrad, Russia, 1968. From an early age it is clear that Alexander Karpenko is destined to lead his countrymen. But when his father is assassinated by the KGB for defying the state, Alexander and his mother will have to escape Russia if they hope to survive. At the docks, they have an irreversible choice: board a container ship bound for America or one bound for Great Britain. Alexander leaves the choice to a toss of a coin . . .
In a single moment, a double twist decides Alexander’s future. During an epic tale, spanning two continents and thirty years, we follow Alexander through triumph and defeat as he sets out on parallel lives, as Alex in New York and Sasha in London.

With a final twist that will shock even his most ardent fans, this is international number one bestseller Jeffrey Archer’s most ambitious and creative work since Kane and Abel.

Sure, the ending was sad but quite logical.

Aningen besviken på slutet men i övrigt skickligt skriven. En bok som ger fler frågor än svar.

Bra bok!Slutet både tragiskt, tänkvärt o annorlunda. Man undrar ju om det ligger någon sanning kring Vladimirs handlingar.

I thoroughly enjoyed it apart from the ending which confused me. I listened to it and the beginning again as inmust have missed something but am none the wiser 😢
