The Inheritance: A Novel of Suspense and Humor

By L.V. Starkey

It's December 30, 2010. The bumbling US Congress's inability to reach an agreement on a tax law in a timely manner is affecting the wealthy in ways they could not imagine. One of those wealthy is Winston Brickley-eighty-three, industrialist, widower, and third-richest man in South Carolina. And his two children are trying to murder him. Though rife with dark humor and suspense, "The Inheritance "is ultimately a heartwarming tale that illuminates the realities of family, marriage, obsessions, greed, and the wonderful paradox that is being human. L. V. Starkey peoples his debut novel with a cast of rich and eccentric characters, from private detectives to compulsive book readers, who all have hopes, dreams, and shortcomings that make for a thrilling and emotional read.
