The Prodigal Daughter (Kane and Abel #3)
by Jeffrey ArcherHere is a novel destined to become the smash best seller of the year- an absorbing, engrossing, sheerly gratifying book. Millions of readers found these qualities in the longest running best seller of 1979, Jeffrey Archer's Kane & Abel, a panoramic tale of the titanic battle between two men obsessed with destroying each other. Now the story continues into the next generation. The novel begins in 1934, in the rich territory of Kane & Abel, when a daughter is born to the once penniless immigrant Abel Rosnovski, now a hotel baron. Her name is Florentyna, and even in her early years it is clear to those around her-proud father, bemused mother, formidable English governess-that she is a girl of unusual spirit and indomitable will: her beauty, intellect, and precocity all signal the growth of a woman whose future knows no bounds. But with her maturity come independence and passion; no one could have foretold the fateful irony that throws Florentyna into the path of Richard Kane, the son of her father's arch-rival. Florentyna's courage is tested for the first time in the painful crucible of an irreparable family quarrel; and when she follows her heart, marrying Richard Kane and plunging herself and him into poverty, she emerges-stronger, more capable than ever-The Prodigal Daughter. So Florentyna and Richard must begin life anew, loving each other as passionately as their fathers hate each other, determined to climb again to the top. This they do, coming full circle, when their fathers die, to wed the Kane and Rosnovski financial empires. But great as Florentyna's satisfaction has been-in her marriage, in her children, in her business success- she discovers in herself an ambition that outstrips even her father's. And so she redeems a promise she made Abel when she was a child, when she insisted that a woman could indeed run for President in the twentieth century. ... To readers of Kane&Abel, The Prodigal Daughter will be a joyous extension of a favorite world; while readers new to Jeffrey Archer will discover a novel that stands alone as a spellbinding experience. For seldom has there been a heroine of such charismatic strength and charm, and never before has Archer's unique gift of capturing the twists and ironies of fate, his insights into the ambitions and passions of his characters, been more acute. The Prodigal Daughter confirms Mr. Archer's genius as a storyteller.
