Book News: Twelve Rooms With A View by Theresa Rebeck
August 3rd, 2009 by Chloe
American author Theresa Rebeck hits British shores this October with her new book Twelve Rooms With A View. The book looks like a fun read about inheritance, family feuds and fighting for what is yours, and is due out on 29th October, published by Harper. Here’s the full synopsis:
“When a rich man you never knew dies and his opulent apartment is left to you, you’d think it was the answer to your dreams. But perhaps it is the start of a living nightmare…Possession is nine-tenths of the law. Or is it? Tina Finn was standing at the edge of her mother’s newly-dug grave when she first heard about her inheritance. Until this moment she’d been scraping by, living from one pay cheque to the next. But all that was about to change! Now she’s the proud owner of a huge luxury apartment overlooking Central Park. Things couldn’t get much better, right? Wrong. Her half brothers, left out of the inheritance, think that she has no right to the apartment and they want her out - by any means necessary. So that’s how Tina went from standing on the edge of her mother’s grave to squatting in a twelve room apartment in the centre of New York. Now she has it all, is she prepared to fight to the end to keep it?”




















Omgosh, what a terrible, tacky cover (imho). The plot sounds interesting, but I just can’t get over the cover (no offence, please).
