Publisher's Note
If Charles Dickens and Agatha Christie had ever managed to collaborate, they might have produced this shamelessly entertaining novel, which introduces readers to what may be the most powerful family in England--and is certainly the vilest. A tour de force of menace, malicious comedy, and torrential social bile, this book marks the American debut of an extraordinary writer.

Industry reviews
"The 'Winshaw Legacy' is a big, raucous and exhilarating novel."
New York Times - Michiko Kakutani 

"A comic/gothic delight...A hilarious novel...The only mystery left is why this gem is the first of this 34-year-old author's novels to reach America."
Chicago Tribune Books - Andy Solomon 

"A wickedly breezy view of postwar Britain as typified by one greedy, ruthless, and mercifully imaginary English family."
San Francisco Chronicle - Carey Harrison 

"Superb...fiendishly clever...riveting...a nasty farce with lots of bathroom humor and violence which reminds me at least as much of 'Fawlty Towers' as it does of 'Midnight's Children'."
Book Jacket - Jay McInerney 

"[S]avage and majestic..."
Salon - Charles Taylor (04/02/1998)

"Savagely funny...a big, raucous and exhilarating novel."
Carter 

"A spoof of classic mystery stories and silly British comedies, this novel is funny, trenchant and ingenious."
McInerney
