Short story with a twist about drug-smuggling by air -
I read this in a couple of hours (it's only 30-odd pages long) and enjoyed it. Typical Forsyth factual style, drawing you in and delivering a nice twist at the end.

The Art of the Matter (Storycuts)




Insight into the art world -
A 50-odd page short story, told in Frederick Forsyth's very precise and accomplished style, which uncovers the good and the bad within the closed clique of the art world. Very engaging story-line. Read it in a day.
