The Heiress was not my jam. I read it as part of a book club. The story was told from multiple perspectives across time, making it intriguing and inviting you as the reader to solve the mystery. However, the characters were not likeable, some forced into settings out of their control. While I would not have chosen to read this book on my own, it is, overall, a well written story that gave enough of a conclusion to  wrap up the story while still leaving a few unsolved mysteries.
