Inherit the Dead, a review
Inherit
the Dead is a mystery with every chapter written by a different famous
mystery or or thriller author though the story is ongoing.
Private
Investigator, Perry Christo, is hired by an extremely wealth woman, Julia
Brusilla to find her daughter Angelina. Time is short, because not only is
Brusilla dying, but in order for Angelina to inherit a large trust fund, she
must sign the papers before she turns 21.
Perry
soon learns nothing is quite as it seems, everyone who has anything to do with
the case has secrets—sometimes shocking—and as things develop, Perry’s own past
rears its nasty head. It isn’t long before he also realizes that someone is
following him as he drives around New York and makes his way into the Hamptons
and back.
Though
the story moves along, I felt the continuity didn’t always work. However, the
one thing I did expect, because I’m familiar with many of the authors work, was
to recognize some of the voices, which I didn’t. There are some unexpected
twists and an unusual ending and for the most part I truly enjoyed the reading.
