Inhaltsangabe

The third novel in Kent Wascoms quartet set in the Gulf Coast, The New Inheritors is a breathtaking examination of family, environment, and the insidious costs of money. In 1914, with the world on the brink of war, Isaac Patterson, a nature-loving young artist, meets Kemper Woolsack, an heiress caught in the rivalry between her brothers. Kempers older brother Angel is hiding a terrible secret about his sexuality, and her younger brother Red possesses a capacity for violence that frightens even the members of his own ruthless family. Together, Isaac and Kemper build a refuge on their beloved, wild, Gulf Coast. But their paradise is short lived: as the coast is rocked by the storms of summer, the country falls into a martial fever as Europe moves towards war, and the Woolsack familys rivalries come to a bloody headthreatening to tear Kemper and Isaac apart forever.
