Résumé
Set in nineteenth-century England, this tale of disinheritance, murder, and deception links together all levels of society. A quincunx of families--the Huffams, Mompessons, Clothiers, Maliphants, and Palphramonds--are all linked together by the codicil to the will of the wealthy but… long-deceased Jeoffrey Huffam. John Huffam's mother holds the codicil, but many others will stop short of nothing, including murder, to get it. Bestseller
