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?

My Thoughts:

When Sebastian Pallander a very wealthy man dies, the family all think they are going to be getting a big pay out but what they don’t realise is everything is not as it seems. They family fight and argue what they think is rightfully theirs. When another tragedy strikes, is there something going on behind the scenes where the reader now questions if everyone is playing fair? It was a great and captivating story. It starts off on a steady pace but soon is tense and on edge as the family gets what’s coming to them. They are all greedy and dishonest with each other. It made me question a few things about what the outcome could be. It was a cleverly written mysterious story that I really enjoyed.
