Kane and Abel; Sons of Fortune
Kane & Abel, which Dan Brown, author of The Da Vinci Code, calls "the ultimate novel of sibling rivalry," tells the story of William Lowell Kane and Abel Rosnovski, one the son of a Boston millionaire, the other a penniless Polish immigrant, born on the same day near the turn of the century on opposite sides of the world. In pursuit of the same dream, across generations, through war, marriage, fortune and disaster, the two powerful--and ruthless-men struggle to build an empire, a sixty-year battle that only one can win. In Sons of Fortune, a pair of twin boys are separated at birth and raised in different worlds. Yet with each choice Nathaniel Cartwright and Fletcher Davenport make--as boys and young men, in love and career, through tragedy and triumph--their lives mirror one another from afar until fate finally brings them together and they must confront the truth and its final consequence. --back cover
