Publisher's summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

New York Times best seller.

Nicholas Young's grandmother Su Yi is on her deathbed. While he rushes to be by her bedside, he's not the only one. The entire Shang-Young clan has convened from all corners of the globe to stake claim on their matriarch's massive fortune. With all parties vying to inherit a trophy estate in the heart of Singapore, Nicholas' childhood home turns into a hotbed of sabotage and scandal.

Taking us from the elegantly appointed mansions of Manila to the secluded private islands in the Sulu Sea, Kevin Kwan's final instalment in this irresistible trilogy reveals the long-buried secrets of Asia's most privileged families and their rich-people problems.

Entertaining narrator and great story with twists

Expressive and entertaining narrator. Some mispronounced words though - like French and Filipino place names. The writer does give an interesting introduction and inspiration to visiting Asia. Comes with a happy ending with a fun twist. I hate unresolved unhappy endings.

Great story and superb narrator

I love the storyline, and Kevin’s character development skills are excellent. My top compliment however goes to Lydia Look, whose brilliant narration made listening to the book a delightful experience.

Loved this series

I devoured all three books in this series in less than a month. I absolutely loved them! This was my least favorite of the three but I still really enjoyed it. Only complaint: wish we had seen Carlton more! I absolutely loved him after China Rich Girlfriend, and I really missed Rachel this book. Still, I think it was a great ending for the series. I will definitely check out Kevin Kwan's other books.

I never wanted it to end!

I loved every moment of these three books. Incredible characters, entertaining multi-perspective story arcs, thoughtful insights into the human condition, and to top it all off, impressive narration that brought the stories to life.
Thank you so much for a fantastic journey!

Brilliant!

I thoroughly enjoyed all three books in this trilogy and I wish there were more! I didn't want the journey to end!
My favourite characters other than Nick and Rachel were Astrid and Charlie.
I found it very nostalgic and comforting because my Mum's family is from Malaysia and many things resonated with me. It was great to see scenes filmed in my hometown of Penang in the movie!

Leaves you wanting installment 4.....

Loved following the Young Family and assorted cousins and inlaws. You want Kevin Kwan to write #4 as to what happens with Nick and Rachel's family.

Absolutely Fabulous Read

All 3 books were fantastic. Tons of twists and turns that made it hard to put down. Such a great ending to the series that I was sad it had to end. The narrative was awesome funny, believable and well suited that made the story come to life.
