The Inheritance by Michael Phillips Book Tour and Book Review

About the Book
The Inheritance The Inheritance (Bethany House, April 2016)
The death of the clan patriarch has thrown the tiny Shetland Islands community of Whale’s Reef into turmoil.
Everyone assumed MacGregor Tulloch’s heir to be his grand-nephew David, a local favorite, but when it is discovered that MacGregor left no will, David’s grasping cousin Hardy submits his own claim to the inheritance, an estate that controls most of the island’s land. And while Hardy doesn’t enjoy much popular support, he has the backing of a shadowy group of North Sea oil investors. The courts have frozen the estate’s assets while the competing claims are investigated, leaving many of the residents in financial limbo. The future of the island—and its traditional way of life—hangs in the balance.
Loni Ford is enjoying her rising career in a large investment firm in Washington, DC. Yet in spite of her outward success, she is privately plagued by questions of identity. Orphaned as a young child, she was raised by her paternal grandparents, and while she loves them dearly, she feels completely detached from her roots. That is until a mysterious letter arrives from a Scottish solicitor. . . .
Past and present collide in master storyteller Phillips’s dramatic new saga of loss and discovery, of grasping and grace, and of the dreams of men and women everywhere.

My review;

"The Inheritance" is another great novel written by author Michael Phillips. Loni Ford has always wondered who her parents were and where she came from. Even though she was raised by her grandparents she has wondered about her parents and what kind of people they were. When she gets a letter from Scotland she thinks that she might be able to find out at last.
David Tulloch has just lost his grand-uncle, Macgregor Tulloch whom he has always loved. Everyone thinks that he will inherit and everything will be okay. This may not be true, though. There are others who want the land that his grand-uncle left. What does Loni Ford have to do with all of this? I really liked the story and I liked the characters. I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book for a review and these are my opinions.
