The Chandler family lead a charmed life. In their ravishing country estate, surrounded by servants, they cling to the trappings of aristocracy and privilege. Eighteen-year-old Alice is marrying the heir to another great house. Her cleverer sister Eve has won a place at Oxford University. All is picture perfect. They are happy, revered and very, very rich. But all is not what it seems. Alice is secretly in love with a fatally attractive, but wholly unsuitable admirer, her father has been philandering for years and Eve's promising academic future is about to be brutally curtailed. The world these people inhabit will be shaken to its core. Wonderfully sympathetic, funny and beguiling, THE INHERITANCE introduces a family who'd rather keep up appearances than face the truth. Intensely human and brilliantly drawn, they will shock, delight and utterly seduce you.

"A sweeping, modern tale of love, betrayal, and decline among the British aristocracy. At their magnificent estate, the Chandlers cling to the trappings of aristocracy in 1960s England. Beautiful eighteen-year-old Alice is marrying the heir to another fortune and her sister Eve has won a place at Oxford. But their charmed lives are not all they seem. Alice is having an affair with a handsome but disreputable lover. Her father is a philanderer whose chronic infidelity pushes his wife Felicity into the arms of another man. And Eve's academic future is cut short by an act of betrayal. Nearly forty years later, Felicity remembers that long-ago wedding day when their lives changed forever." Worldcat.
