Reseñas de la Crítica

Sakhlecha’s third novel is a heady broth of secrets and lies; she expertly ratchets up the tension as anger and resentment simmering below the surface gradually come to a head and result in murder.

With echoes of the TV dramas Succession and The White Lotus, but also of Agatha Christie and The Traitors, Trisha Sakhlecha’s third novel centres on a wealthy Indian family, the Agarwals, who gather on a Scottish island to celebrate Papa and Mama’s wedding anniversary... As the family crisis unfolds, Sakhlecha displays a Christie-like knack for misdirection, framing everyone on the island as at once a potential victim and a potential killer.

Compelling and taut, if you adored Succession, you’ll love this!

[An] ambitious family saga with twists galore . . . Well-paced and character-led this is a breeze of a read.

An elegant portrait of family dysfunction and a pacy, page-turning whodunnit, The Inheritance keeps you hooked until the very end.
