They had only one thing in common ...William Lowell Kane and Abel Rosnovski, one of the son of a Boston millionaire, the other a penniless Polish immigrant - two men born on the same day on opposite sides of the world, their paths destined to cross in the ruthless struggle to build a fortune. The marvellous story, spanning sixty years, of two powerful men linked by an all-consuming hatred, brought together by fate to save ...and finally destroy ...each other. Archer has a gift for plot that can only be described as genius - Daily Telegraph. Probably the greatest storyteller of our age - Mail on Sunday.
