The Prodigal Daughter

The Prodigal Daughter is a perfect sequel to Kane and Abel. Just like the prequel, this book too is interesting, well paced and goes in depth describing the main characters and their life. Each situation is well thought of and written in great detail, at the same time neither being lengthy or long. 

Just like Mr.Archer explained the Britain electoral process in his novel 'First Among Equals', here he explains the American electoral process though not in as much detail. 


The beginning of the story is a flashback of the ending of the first book, though here the Prodigal daughter is the center around which the story revolves. However, one can still enjoy this book even he hasn't read the first. 


The story is divided into three parts:
The Past - laying the foundation for the young girl's present.
The Present - building up the platform for her (and her country's) future.
And finally The Future - the Prodigal's daughter's destiny!
 

Pick up the book and enjoy!
