​FAMILIES LIE. DNA DOESN'T

MORE PRAISE FOR THE INHERITANCE

The Inheritance is a smart debut tackling the seductive issues of wealth, succession and family secrets. Taut, propulsive and with enticing Succession-meets-Jane Harper vibes, this novel is perfect for suburban noir superfans. I whizzed through it.’

Ali Lowe, author of The School Run

‘A gripping story about wealth, entitlement, corruption and, most of all, family. Kate Horan's debut novel is sophisticated and un-put-down-able.' 

B.M. Carroll, author of One of Us is Missing

'The Inheritance is an incredibly strong debut from Kate Horan, full of all the things I love in a novel - family secrets, small-town intrigue and rich people behaving badly. I ripped through it faster than you can say the words 'DNA test'.'

Cassie Hamer, author of The Truth About Faking It

‘Take one establishment family with the money to hide anything then throw in a DNA test that never lies and sit back and enjoy the ride that Kate Horan takes you on. A fabulous debut!’

Fiona Lowe, author of The Accident
