Three half sisters have to share their father’s ranch under the terms of his will and get rather more than they bargained for in this delightful family story from Nora. It’s a cracking story with some great relationships entwined within it as well as a taut mystery. This is as good as it gets. Brilliant.
When Jack Mercy died, he left behind a ranch worth nearly twenty million dollars. Now his three daughters - each born of a different mother, and each unknown to the others - are gathered to hear the reading of the will. But the women are shocked to learn that before any of them can inherit, they must live together on the ranch for one year. For Tess, a sophisticated city-girl who just wants to collect her cash and get back to L.A., it’s a nightmare. For Lily, on the run from her abusive ex-husband, it’s a refuge. And for Willa - who grew up on the ranch - it’s an intrusion into her rightful home. They are sisters…and strangers. Now they face a challenge: to put their bitterness aside and live like a family. To protect each other from danger - and unite against a brutal enemy who threatens to destroy them all…
