Kevin Kwan, bestselling author of Crazy Rich Asians and China Rich Girlfriend,
is back with an uproarious new novel of a family riven by fortune, an
ex-wife driven psychotic with jealousy, a battle royale fought through
couture gown sabotage and the heir to one of Asia’s greatest fortunes
locked out of his inheritance.When Nicholas Young hears that his
grandmother, Su Yi, is on her deathbed, he rushes to be by her
bedside—but he’s not alone. It seems the entire Shang-Young clan has
convened from all corners of the globe, ostensibly to care for their
matriarch, but truly to stake claim on the massive fortune that Su Yi
controls. With each family member secretly fantasizing about getting the
keys to Tyersall Park—a trophy estate on 64 prime acres in the heart of
Singapore—the place becomes a hotbed of intrigue and Nicholas finds
himself blocked from entering the premises. As relatives claw over
heirlooms, Astrid Leong finds herself at the center of her own storm,
desperately in love with her old sweetheart Charlie Wu, but tormented by
his ex-wife—a woman hell-bent on destroying Astrid’s reputation and
relationship. Meanwhile Kitty Pong, married to billionaire Jack Bing and
determined to raise their son more lavishly than a future king, finds a
formidable opponent in his fashionista daughter, Colette.A
sweeping novel that takes us from the elegantly-appointed mansions of
Manila to the secluded private islands in the Sulu Sea, from a
schoolyard kidnapping to a gold leaf dancefloor spattered with blood,
Kevin Kwan’s gloriously wicked new novel reveals the long-buried secrets
and rich people problems of Asia’s most privileged families.
