Bitter Inheritance

William Ellis Colby, Caucasian, is dead. He has willed his thriving multi-million dollar advertising agency to his daughter, Sonya Ellis Colby, and his personal assistant, Velma Hannah, the woman he planned to marry and who is African-American. Claire Colby, William’s wife, unable to cope with her estranged husband’s death, commits suicide. Sonya vows to make Velma pay for what she has done to her family. Sonya disappears, then returns home (after four years) with a vengeance. She assumes her position as second-in-command at the company and manages to inveigle Velma into her home where she drugs her and holds her captive. Callie Foster, a former maid of the Colby family â€" who hates Sonya as much as Sonya does Velma Hannah, who has been accidentally locked in the house the four years Sonya has been gone â€" comes to Velma’s aid. These three women make Bitter Inheritance a thrilling must-read
