releasing January 9, 2024 from St. Martin’s Press
The Heiress completely surprised me. The novel is about Camden, an orphan and heir to a fortune, and his wife Jules, who is supportive but has her own secrets.
Camden’s adoptive mother Ruby was a very wealthy woman, and left her fortune to him. Ruby was notorious for having four dead husbands — victims to murders or accidents.
Camden has no interest in the family money, but is called back to his family’s mansion under mysterious circumstances.
I don’t want to say more, because this didn’t unfold how I expected.
The Heiress is short and quick, with chapters alternating between two narrators and a series of letters, newspaper clippings and interviews. I love this type of structure — it keeps things varied and interesting.
I recommend The Heiress for an addictive one-sitting read on a stormy night.
