Fatal Inheritance by Rachel Rhys is set mostly in 1940's French Riviera in the aftermath of war, I found the authors descriptions transferred me and it pulled me in right away!
Wonderful characters that are well developed and I found I wanted to know more about them and their story. The mystery, intrigue, glamour and danger make for a great mix to keep you intrigued and turning the page.
This historical mystery is interesting and well plotted. The story moves at a steady pace, and I had a hard time putting it down.
