Story summary
Jeffrey Archer, a bestselling novelist and former Conservative politician, died suddenly at age 86 on October 2, 2023, according to his publisher HarperCollins. His novels have sold over 300 million copies in 115 countries. Archer served as an MP for Louth from 1969 to 1974 and later joined the House of Lords in 1992 after being made a life peer.
Archer's writing career took off following his imprisonment in 2001 when he was convicted of perjury and sentenced to four years for lying during a libel case against the Daily Star. He returned to political life briefly before retiring from the House of Lords in 2024. His last book, Adam and Eve, was scheduled for release this month.
Despite his literary success, Archer faced significant controversy due to his conviction, which overshadowed much of his later career but did not diminish his impact on British literature.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political
question, so it has no leaning score. That is an
answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly
or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it
anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political
position.
