THIS is Kwan's third book after Crazy Rich Asians (which is being turned into a movie) and China Rich ­Girlfriend.
Shang Su Yi, matriach of the Young family, is on her ­deathbed.
Her relatives are rushing to her side, ­planning lots of backstabbing and ­manipulation, in order to lay their hands on Tyersall Park, a vast estate Shang owns. Nick Young (the main protagonist of Crazy Rich Asians) is initially prevented from seeing his grandmother by scheming cousin Eddie, who is hoping to inherit her estate himself.
However, grandmother and grandson eventually reconcile, and Nick makes a revelation that has a huge bearing on the fate of the estate.
Meanwhile, Nick's other cousin Astrid Leong (who appeared in the first two books), is now with her old flame Charlie.
But Astrid has to contend with her scheming ex-husband and Charlie's emotionally-unstable ex-wife.
Kwan weaves an interesting family saga with characters you can relate to.
Overall, it's an interesting read.
