A transporting novel about a century-old unsolved murder, a disputed inheritance, and a family secret that some will kill to protect . . . 'As much a feminist adventure as a redemptive family mystery . . . I was gripped and entertained from start to finish' Ashley Audrain, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Push 'Strong women, rich history and page-turning suspense make for a rich and satisfying read' Pam Jenoff, New York Times bestselling author * * * A century-old unsolved murder A disputed inheritance A family secret that some will kill to protect . . . When Sara Marsala's beloved great-aunt Rosie passes away, she leaves Sara a valuable piece of land in Sicily, but there's a catch: the locals refuse to acknowledge the rightful owner of the deed, and if Sara wants the land she must first uncover the truth about what happened to her great-great grandmother, Serafina Marsala. Because Rosie didn't think Serafina died of illness as family lore states . . . Rosie believed Serafina was murdered, and she wants Sara to prove it. Sara's investigations take her up and down the picturesque Italian countryside and, along the way, she learns more about Serafina, a headstrong young woman thrust into motherhood in her teens, who fought for a better life for all the woman of her small village. Yet a woman who challenges the status quo is never safe, and as Sara discovers more about Serafina, she comes up against the same menacing forces that took down her great-great grandmother. And now they want to destroy Sara too. * * * Praise for The Sicilian Inheritance: 'Equal parts rich historical fiction, gripping murder mystery, and a moving exploration of identity, grief, and the long shadow of the past' Andrea Bartz, New York Times bestselling author of We Were Never Here
