Description
When a penniless bookkeeper's last will names the richest man in Westchester as heir-and entrusts his beloved daughter Imogen to that same fortune-an old steward, a proud millionaire, and a shy country girl are swept into a maelstrom of greed, manners, and secret longing. Worth Millions is a propulsive 1920s tale of estates and auctions, broken promises and improbable kindness, where antique beds fetch fortunes, telegrams travel faster than truth, and an impulsive young scamp can turn a single evening into a lifetime of consequences.From the oak-paneled Killigrew library to the frozen runs of Lake Placid and the shabby grace of Dobbs's Corners, Richard Barry sketches a vivid world of class codes and private loyalties. Isaiah Scroggins is the heart of the story-the loyal superintendent who will risk everything for Imogen. Peter Killigrew is the reluctant magnate whose inherited caution clashes with a new, dangerous tenderness. And Imogen herself is the quiet, resolute center: a wildflower in a moneyed garden whose choices bind them all.Equal parts social comedy, romantic suspense, and moral fable, Worth Millions asks what a fortune is really worth-and what one must pay to redeem the human heart.
