Legacy: Violence and money - their bloody inheritance

Rate this book
This book is a sequel to the Dividing Line series.

Ethan Law, The Prince of Manchester, has been running the Maguire-Law family for a year now with the help of his business partner Daniel and younger cousin, Cara. The first challenge to their authority comes in the form of a riot on the Montford Estate, a stronghold of the Law family. This initial rebellion is brutally put down but leads to a plot against the Maguires and Laws involving not only a gang of grave robbers but an enemy the likes of which their family has never faced before and one they're unsure how to confront.

Between bearing the weight of responsibility for the whole family, as well as the pressure to live up to the formidable reputations of his predecessors, Ethan feels he is woefully underqualified to steer the family through this fresh crisis.
Will The Prince's reign end before it's even begun?

Author of over seventy books so far. Living on the beautiful west coast of Scotland with my husband, twin daughters and a cat called Mavis, although I am originally from Lancashire in the north of England.

My tastes in all things are eclectic, which extends to my writing. Although I primarily write crime books - especially gangland thrillers - I also write gothic historical romance and fantasy. I publish on Amazon Kindle and some of my novels are available in paperback too. I also have a traditional publishing contract with Boldwood Books.

When I'm not writing - which isn't very often - I enjoy reading Daphne Du Maurier, Edgar Allan Poe, Shirley Jackson, MR James and the Brontes, among many others. I also enjoy swimming, walking and spending time with my family.

Legacy – Heather Atkinson

This book is a sequel to the Dividing Line series – so anyone who has read the Dividing line series will absolutely love this. It really is a must read for fans.
I won’t lie, I was gutted when I heard the Dividing Line series was coming to end. Its been one of my all time favourite series. I was thrilled when I realised HA was going to continue but with a whole new generation.
Wowsers, this can only mean that we will get a few more books at least of the new series.

Absolutely gripping from start to finish. Once started I found it very difficult to put down. Thank you to HA for keeping my addiction fueled, your books are addictive.

Can not recommend this highly enough.

Brilliantly written

I love love love the dividing line series by Heather Atkinson, every single book is un-put-down-able and I was hooked from start to finish. I loved all the characters and now I finished I’m really hoping Heather Atkinson decides to add another book in the series 🙏🏽.

If you’re looking for a really good book that you can get your teeth into I definitely recommend the whole series.

And we're back with a bang 🥳🥳🥳 I absolutely loved the Dividing Line Series, was traumatized by the end!

Legacy is the Maguire and Law next generation taking over what their parents started... and it does NOT disappoint. It still has the excitement and cunning of the original series and I can't wait for the next installment 😀 10 stars and more

This book has everything . The Laws and Maguires are at it again. I won't spoil anything just want to say Heather Atkinson has excelled with this book, worthy of 5* rating. I read 2nd half of this book in one day, couldn't stop reading and a great page turner.
