About this ebook
This tale is one of twelve in Tell Tale, from #1 New York Times bestselling author Jeffrey Archer’s collection of short stories.
A Wasted Hour is one of those remarkable short stories that you just know has to be true. Kelley, a Stanford College student and aspiring writer, always thumbs a lift back to campus, not only to save money, but in the hope of meeting someone with an interesting story to reveal. But even Kelley couldn’t have been prepared for John, and what he had to tell her...with a twist that would haunt her for the rest of her life.
