The elderly owner of a Swiss bank has been murdered by his adopted son, the inheritance re-directed to a retired British Military Intelligence officer, Sir Morris Beesely - a man of many secrets. A chain of events has begun that will set Europe ablaze. No one is quite who they seem, everyone has their own agenda, every government seeking 'the list' that went missing in 1962, a list that the European Union, and the Swiss Government, dreads being found. The 'list' is buried with a fantastic hord of Nazi treasure - but no one is interested in the treasure, everyone wants the list - it is more valuable. And more dangerous. ÒGroups within groups, secrets inside secrets, lies on top of lies.Ó INHERITANCE, first of six part series.
I read this book some time ago and enjoyed it very much. Far fetched? Absolutely, but great escapist fun with much action, adventure and intrigue. Easy reading to take your mind off the rubbish reporting in the daily dismal news.
