So when a chance encounter lands her a dream job working for Simone Rothwell, an acclaimed filmmaker with a cliffside Malibu estate, a magnetic husband, and the glittering life Zoe has always imagined for herself, it feels like fate. </p><p>But inside the Rothwells' beautiful home, something darker lingers. Simone's office is strictly off-limits. Zoe's mother begs her to stay away.

And so was Zoe's mother. </p><p>As the investigation closes in, Zoe begins to suspect that her glamorous new boss may have had a far more disturbing reason for hiring her. </p><p>She may be setting a trap. </p><p>From the sun-drenched beaches of Malibu to the icy slopes of Chamonix, <i>The Inheritance Thief </i>is a twisty, seductive thriller about ambition, obsession, inherited guilt, and the terrible cost of getting everything you thought you wanted.</p>
