Publisher Description

From international bestselling author Jeffrey Archer, The Prodigal Daughter, "A page-turner" (The Washington Post). HER FUTURE IS AMBITION. With a will of steel, Polish immigrant Florentyna Rosnovski is indeed Abel’s daughter. She shares with her father a love of America, his ideals, and his dream for the future. But she wants more: to be the first female president. HIS FUTURE IS WEALTH. Golden boy Richard Kane was born into a life of luxury. The scion of a banking magnate he is successful, handsome, and determined to carve his own path in the world—with the woman he loves. BUT THEIR PAST HOLDS A SECRET… With Florentyna’s ultimate goal only a heartbeat away, both are about to discover the shattering price of power as a titanic battle of betrayal and deception reaches out from the past—a blood feud between two generations that threatens to destroy everything Florentyna and Richard have fought to achieve. “Archer is a master entertainer.”—Time

"I enjoyed the story in all its generations. How a immigrant's family makes it big in the USA. The characters are strong and very human. Wealth does help but they worked hard also. A little unbelievable because a woman became president and that doesn't seem close to happening here yet."

— Beth (5 out of 5 stars)

Quotes

    " My only reservation about this book is that the whole first half is a rehash of what happened in Kane and Abel, albeit with some additional insights. But otherwise a good read which made me really want to start the sequel, Shall WeTell the President. "
