Expertly told, without a false note.
Australian Book Review

When Larissa’s father dies, Eric, the family’s lawyer and her mother’s and father’s closest friend, naturally handles his will.

The two families are inextricably entwined. Eric and his wife have been part of their family for as long as Larissa can remember, often taking joint summer holidays in a timber cottage by the sea.

After Larissa’s brother, George, raises questions about the will, about the sums of money left, certain discrepancies, the ties which had bound them all begin to fray. Reluctant to even think of challenging Eric, Larissa nonetheless comes to see that George has a point. There was less money than there should have been. Where has it gone?

The answer, when it finally comes, shocks George and Larissa to the core, though their mother, looking on, seems oddly unmoved.

Buy John Clanchy’s wonderful House of Cards now to find out where the money went, and how the truth unravels a family.
