“The Heiress” is a thought provoking thriller about generational wealth and morality. The novel follows Camden and Jules as they return to his estate Ashby House, in North Carolina to deal with his inheritance and adopted family. Interspersed are letters from Camden’s adoptive mother Ruby who left him Ashby house. I loved the tension building and intrigue throughout this novel. Ruby’s letters were definitely my favorite to read, but I enjoyed Jules and Camden’s perspectives as well. If you’ve liked Rachel Hawkins previous books or are a thriller reader, pick up “The Heiress” when it’s released on January 9th!
