The Estate - A gripping serial killer thriller from bestselling author of DCI

Inheritance can be murder... Sebastian Pallander''s death leaves behind a multi-billion-dollar financial estate and a castle in the Cairngorms.

Soon Sebastian''s eldest son dies in mysterious circumstances, and DI Salt and DS Blackstock begin to suspect the worst: the people listed on the will might not be future millionaires; they might be future victims. Because when this much money is at stake, people are capable of almost anything. And if Salt and Blackstock are right, someone is killing their way into the inheritance - once family member at a time...
