Gold Digger

By Frances Fyfield

Book Overview

A relentlessly twisty thriller of greed, mystery, and betrayal, in which a young widow must outwit her husband's dangerous family, from bestselling British novelist Frances Fyfield. In a rambling old mansion by the sea, Thomas Porteous lies dying. His much younger wife Di, soon to be his sole heir, knows that her in-laws will soon descend on their home to lay claim to an inheritance. Members of the Porteous family, including a pair of poisonous daughters, believe that they alone are entitled to the dead man's wealth. They all regard Di as a gold-digging interloper--all except Thomas's adoring grandson, who is torn between his loyalty to his parents and the intriguing widow. As tensions rise like a tide, lethal secrets surface--secrets that expose Di's shocking past. To survive, she must now discover the weaknesses of her enemies. With the help of an unlikely collection of loners and eccentrics, she sets a trap to expose their evil greed. And on the night they are lured to the house, Di will be ready. Humming with psychological suspense, this high-voltage thriller is a mesmerizing game of cat and mouse.
