5.0

A delightfully macabre novel told through both two first person protagonists and earlier written letters penned by the third protagonist.  The novel centres around a rich family, their spectacular family home and the secrets of the deemed imposters in the family, i.e. those who actually control the wealth.  An extremely engaging and very unique novel.
