  • "When Constance Barrington dies, she leaves behind a wealthy estate and a complex family network. But when the family gathers to hear her will, they are in for a terrible shock. The provisions are far from fair; some benefit hugely and others hardly at all. Constance's granddaughter, Louise, is bequeathed the copyright for her late grandfather's novels (long-since out of print and valuable only as a reminder of the man she loved). It is a paltry inheritance, symbolizing the inequity at the heart of the Barrington family. Soon, old family feuds com to the surface and secrets start to emerge. But it is through the dusty, long-forgotten books that the most explosive secret of all will come to light."
