Sons Of Fortune

Sons of Fortune by Jeffrey Archer It is often
spur-of-the-moment decisions sometimes made by others that
can change our whole lives. Bestselling author Jeffrey
Archer returns with a powerful tale of twins separated by
fate and reunited by destiny. In the late 1940s in
Hartford Connecticut a set of twins is parted at birth.
Nat Cartwright goes home with his parents a schoolteacher
and an insurance salesman. But his twin brother is to
begin his days as Fletcher Andrew Davenport the only son
of a multi-millionaire and his society wife. During the
years that follow the two brothers grow up unaware of each
others existence. Nat leaves college at the University of
Connecticut to serve in Vietnam. He returns a war hero
finishes school and becomes a successful banker. Fletcher
meanwhile has graduated from Yale University and
distinguishes himself as a criminal defense lawyer before
he is elected to the Senate. Even when Nat and Fletcher
fall in love with the same girl they still dont meet. They
continue on their separate paths until one has to defend
the other for a murder he did not commit. But the final
confrontation comes when Nat and Fletcher are selected to
stand against each other for governor of the state. In the
tradition of Jeffrey Archers most popular books Sons of
Fortune is as much a chronicle of a nation in transition
as it is the story of two remarkable men and how
eventually they come to discover the truth – and its
extraordinary consequences…
