Succession meets And Then There Were None.
Every family has a secret.
The mega-rich Pallanders are used to luxury – a castle in the Scottish Highlands, a villa in Tuscany, a billion-dollar fortune and an island in the Caribbean – but their perfect life is about to be shattered.
Every father has a favourite.
Sebastian Pallander dies, leaving a pitiful amount of money to his wife and children. His family fight over the scraps as old rivalries and bitter jealousies come to the surface. And when Pallander’s son is killed in mysterious circumstances, everyone suspects foul play.
Every killer has a motive.
After a desperate race for survival, the relatives gather at their estate to weather the storm. They all begin to wonder: who will be next? Where has all their money gone? And will any of them get what they truly deserve?
Denzil Meyrick’s wry sense of humour recalls that of the much-missed Reginald Hill …This classic example of beat-the-rich is a joy from start to frenetic finish. * The Times *
Thrilling. * Crime Monthly *
Succession meets Downton with a dash of Poirot. Whiplash action, grit, gloss and dark humour brilliantly blended in this pacy action thriller. * Andrea Mara *
Fast paced and thrilling – Denzil Meyrick gives Harlan Coben a run for his money. As many twists and turns as a Scottish country road. Grabs you from page one and doesn’t let go. * Stephen Leather *
A family at war with itself is under threat in this glossy page-turner that keeps both police and readers guessing to the final pages. Denzil Meyrick moves the intrigue from Glasgow to London, Switzerland and the delights of rural Perthshire with consummate ease. * Douglas Skelton *
