Lord Jeffrey Archer dies at 86
Lord Jeffrey Archer, the British novelist and former politician, has died at age 86 at his home. His life was marked by extraordinary highs and lows, from being a Conservative MP and deputy chairman of the Conservative Party to bankruptcy, a libel case involving allegations of a relationship with a sex worker, and a four-year prison sentence for perjury and perverting the course of justice. Despite multiple scandals and resignations, he achieved massive literary success with bestselling novels including Kane and Abel, one of the highest-selling books in the world.
