Anthony Rockwall has everything wealth can buy—except the certainty that his son will win the heart of the woman he loves. Convinced that money can overcome any obstacle, the self-made millionaire sets out to prove that fortune can accomplish what romance alone cannot. But as chance, timing, and human emotion collide on the streets of New York, the question remains: are some things beyond even the reach of great wealth?

Filled with sharp humor, clever twists, and O. Henry's trademark charm, Mammon and the Archer is a delightful tale about love, ambition, and the enduring debate over whether destiny—or dollars—rules our lives.
