Description
Kane and Abel by Jeffrey Archer is a global phenomenon that has captivated readers worldwide, having been read over 100 million times. The story has not only spawned two sequels but also dominated bestseller charts the world over.
Two strangers are born worlds apart with one destiny that will define them both. William Lowell Kane, the son of a Boston millionaire, and Abel Rosnovski, the son of a penniless Polish immigrant, are born on the same day on opposite sides of the world. They are brought together by fate and the quest of a dream.
Locked in a relentless struggle spanning sixty years and three generations, the two men battle for supremacy in pursuit of an empire. Their rivalry is fuelled only by their hatred for each other and the knowledge that their conflict will end in triumph for one and the destruction of the other.
