Tremendous…
A private and remote island off the Scottish coast, a family reunion and the ludicrously wealthy Agarwal family. They have gathered to celebrate the anniversary of the patriarch and matriarch - but also (and primarily for some) to discover just how the long awaited three hundred million inheritance will be divided between the three siblings. A gripping and suspenseful tale of greed, familial dynamics, toxicity and past secrets that will have the reader holding their breath on every single page. A continuous thread of menace runs through the narrative which is drenched in atmosphere with short, snappy chapters from multiple points of view and a propulsive plot populated with perfectly formed and credible, though wholly unlikeable, characters - leading to an explosive and, perhaps, unexpected denouement. Tremendous.
