About this work

Description

"In St. Richard's Hospice, Tina Rogers is told by her dying mother that her birth was a consequence of rape and that her father was extremely wealthy. Shortly afterwards, Tina discovers a new half-sister, Michelle Claines, who now runs the successful family business. To avenge her mother's rape and Michelle's cold-hearted and hostile rejection, Tina and her partner Alfie, living very different lives to Michelle's pampered world, embark on a unique scam to defraud Michelle of some of the millions they now believe Tina has a moral claim to. With their innovative scam edging ever-closer towards success, Tina makes a mistake that will lead to their detection and potentially prison, and which now requires her and Alfie to either give up their quest, or for their pursuit of a life-changing fortune to take a more sinister turn. Written entirely during Covid-lockdowns and utilising an authentic opportunity for the chaos around Covid-19 to hide a murder in plain sight, Lance Dune House is a compelling story of money, envy, pretend love and revenge between Michelle, Tina, and Alfie that changes everyone's lives, and one that will tug at your heart strings and challenge your moral compass. What would you have done?"-- From back cover.
