Peter Falk came to prominence as an actor in 1956 in the highly successful off-Broadway revival of The Iceman Cometh" with Jason Robards. Although he worked continuously for the next three years bouncing from one off-Broadway theatre to the next a theatrical agent advised him not to expect much work in motion pictures because of his glass eye. Later a talent scout for Columbia Pictures described Falk as a second John Garfield but Harry Cohn the head of Columbia Pictures unfortunately disagreed: ' For the same price I can get an actor with two eyes'. But in 1958 Twentieth Century Fox came to New York to make a movie
- " Murder Inc"
- & Falk landed a juicy role for which he received rave reviews & incredibly was nominated for an Academy Award. He was then nominated again for his second film " Pocketful of Miracles" starring Bette Davis. Falk went on to become a favourite among filmgoers yet it was through television that he reached his widest audience as Lt. Columbo winning four Emmys for the role. Interestingly " Columbo's" raincoat came out of Falk's bedroom closet. He bought it years before he became an actor. He's been"ed as saying 'I wanted to wear something people would remember. Bottom line it's the world's most famous raincoat'. " Just One More Thing" is pure Peter Falk & reads as if he's sitting next to you chuckling as he recalls his remarkable past."

From Orlando Figes international bestselling author of A Peoples Tragedy" " Just Send Me Word" is the moving true story of two young Russians whose love survived Stalins Gulag. Lev & Svetlana kept apart for fourteen years by the Second World War & the Gulag stayed true to each other & exchanged thousands of secret letters as Lev battled to survive in Stalins camps. Using this remarkable cache of smuggled correspondence Orlando Figes tells the tale of two incredible people who swept along in the very worst of times kept their devotion alive. Orlando Figes was granted exclusive access to the thousands of letters between Lev & Sveta that form the foundation of Just Send Me Word & he was able to interview the couple in person then in their nineties.

(Simon Sebag Montefiore " Financial Times"). " This powerful narrative by a distinguished historian will take its place not just in history but in literature". (Robert Massie). " Electrifying passionate devoted despairing exhilarating...a tale of hope resilience grit & love". (" The Times"). " Moving...a remarkable discovery". (Max Hastings " Sunday Times").

(Oliver Bullough " Independent"). " Immensely touching...a heartening gem of a book". (Anna Reid " Literary Review"). " The remarkable true story of a love affair between two Soviet citizens...as much a literary challenge as a historical one: the book can be read as a non-fiction novel". (" Telegraph"). " Remarkable... Figes selecting & then interpreting this mass of letters makes them tell two kinds of story. The first is a uniquely detailed narrative of the gulag of the callous slatternly universe which consumed millions of lives... The second is about two people determined not to lose each other". (Neal Ascherson " Guardian"). "A quiet moving & memorable account of life in a totalitarian state.. . The book often reads like a novel...captivating". (" Evening Standard"). " Orlando Figes has wrought something beautiful from dark times". (Ian Thomson " Observer"). "A heart-rending record of extraordinary human endurance". (" Kirkus Reviews"). "A remarkable tale of love & devotion during the worst years of the USSR... Figes fine narrative pacing enhances this moving memorable story". (" Publishers Weekly").
