Trisha Sakhlecha: The inheritance, Penguin Random House UK, Century, 9781529928723, ebook, coming February 2025

Thanks to an early netgalley of "Trisha Sakhlecha's : The Inheritance", my end of summer reading was a gripping mystery, a perfect escapist novel. 

A very wealthy Indian patriach with three children, Myra, Aseem and Aisha, decides to announce how his estate will be split up  amongst them. The Agarwals retreat to the Scottish island Myra is turning into a luxury retreat for a family reunion. As soon as they arrive, family dynamics set in and their mother's manipulative love and expectations do nothing to cover up the reason why everyone came and is so eager to receive their share of the fortune. This includes Zoe, Assam's wife whose voice and that of Myra narrate the mounting toxic developments, climaxing in a death with one of family members losing his/her life. A tight plot, several twists, well drawn out characters against an Indian/English background.
