Reviews
Easy reading
5By Mcb717A good story. Keeps you wanting to see what happens next.Predictable and Simplistic
1By jbommyA soap opera that hoped to have some weight due to the American politics. Too bad - it could have been a great, as the idea is good, but poorly executed. The research into the geography of Boston was terrific, though.Driven
5By Regaleagle59While this story was a tad bit unrealistic, it was also a great follow up to Kane & Abel.Gripping
4By Grandma SloopyNice follow up to Kane and Abel. A family epic that engages all the senses. Hard to put down.The Prodigal Daughter
5By SPBerkoJeffrey Archer is an excellent writer and novelist. I have read 12 of his books and they were all very good. However, this one, The Prodigal Daughter is the best I have read - excellent in every way!Wonderful
5By BeachBlonde1962Just finished reading "The Prodigal Daughter." What a terrific novel and portrayal of a woman of strength & determination. The lead character, Floraytina, is admirable as well as a person one can identify with. Beginning with her birth, you root for her, & find yourself right behind her, wishing her to succeed through the successes and trials of her life. With this book, I could hardly put it down.The book that made me fall in love with reading
5By DemetrulaMore years ago than I care to admit, one of my high school teachers asked me to choose this book for an upcoming report. She knew I was also working a full time job while going to school and said that it was so good I would finish it over a weekend. She was right. Over the many years since, Jeffrey Archer continues to be my favorite author, and now he is also a favorite author of my daughter. Though this is a great first Archer book to read, it is part 2 of a 3 part series. I recommend getting Kane & Abel along with Shall We Tell The President along with this - you won't regret it!Yikes
1By Smh0311Could not wait to read this novel then I could not close it fast enough. Really we should all get our money back the typos are insane and just when you've had a few pages break they are back.Prodigal Daughter
1By DProtherA typically good Archer tale made nearly impossible to enjoy because of the countless typos and miss spellings. Better to buy a copy from a used bookstore than to download this mangled version.
