The Price of Inheritance: A Novel

The Price of Inheritance: A Novel

In this enthralling new novel from the author of The List (a â€œsmartly paced and dishy debut,â€ Publishers Weekly, starred review), a young woman working in the high-end art world stumbles upon a rare antiqueâ€”and an irresistible man with a dark past.

After eight years in the American Furniture department at Christieâ€™s, twenty-nine-year-old Carolyn Everett is a rising star. But one wrong decision and a scandal leaves her unemployed and broken. Desperate to piece her life back together, Carolyn leaves New York City to work in a tiny antique store in Newport, Rhode Island.

One day at a small county auction, she discovers a piece of Middle Eastern pottery, which she purchases for twenty dollars on a hunch. Curiosity sends her on a mission to find its original owner, and she eventually winds up in the townâ€™s United States Navy Baseâ€”and in a relationship with notorious womanizer Marine Sergeant Tyler Ford, who claims the relic came to him as a gift from his translator during the early days of the Iraq War. From two different worlds, Tyler and Carolyn become obsessed with the mysterious relicâ€”and each otherâ€”until the origin of the art comes under intense scrutiny and reveals a darker side of Tylerâ€™s past. Carolyn still feels like thereâ€™s more to the story, but can she risk attaching herself to another scandalâ€”and does she truly know the man sheâ€™s fallen in love with?

The Price of Inheritance is a rare find of a novel. Engaging, suspenseful, and full of intrigue, it delves into the elite world of big bucks deals and dangerous black market promises, where one woman must decide whether sheâ€™s willing to gamble her greatest assetâ€”her heart.
