She had been dead now for four days and I had become rich. Unimaginably rich. 

"A tightly plotted and darkly funny tale of trade in human bodies and souls."  —  Kerryn Goldsworthy, The Age

Blanche de Rigny has always considered herself the black sheep of the family. And a black sheep on crutches at that. But it turns out her family tree has branches she didn't even know existed. And many of them are rotten to the core. As Blanche learns more about the legacy left by her wealthy Parisian ancestors, she decides a little family tree pruning might be in order. Spanning two centuries, from Paris on the eve of the Franco-Prussian War to the modern day, this unforgettable family saga lays bare the persistent and poisonous injustice of inequality. 

"Social justice fuels the noir works of this author and lawyer: the little guys win, the powerful lose. So it was in The Godmother, in 2017, and so it is again, now more than ever, in The Inheritors."   — Le Monde

"Richesse Oblige [The Inheritors] has everything we love about [Hannelore Cayre]; damaged but memorable characters, sharp language, ferocious humour, an undercurrent of political rage, a punchy narrative and lashings of subversion."   — Lire Literary Magazine

"As corrosive as ever, the author of The Godmother unleashes her caustic eloquence in a hilariously black tale that mocks the self-perpetuation of the élite."   —  Paris Match
