Nach russischer Kriegsgefangenschaft gelangt Abel Rosnovski, unehelicher Sohn eines polnischen Adligen, mit einem Auswandererschiff nach Amerika. Dort arbeitet er sich zum Hotelmanager hoch. Sein Schicksal kreuzt sich dramatisch mit dem von William Lowell Kane, Erbe eines gigantischen Vermögens, der zum Bankpräsidenten werden soll. Abel hatte ihn einst bewundert - doch dann nimmt, zurzeit der großen Wirtschaftskrise, ein lebenslänglicher Hass seinen Anfang. »Kain und Abel war der große Durchbruch in meiner Karriere als Schriftsteller. Bis heute ist es vielleicht das beliebteste meiner Bücher, überall auf der Welt. Aus diesem Grund ich mich entschlossen, meinen Roman ›Kain und Abel‹ (der 1979 zum ersten Mal erschien) noch einmal zu überarbeiten und so zu gestalten, wie er in meiner Vision schon immer hätte sein sollen. Ich hoffe, meine alten und zukünftigen Leser freuen sich darauf, William Lowell Kane und Abel Rosnovski wieder (oder auch zum ersten Mal) zu begegnen.« Jeffrey Archer
