The number-one bestseller in Britain, <i>Windfall</i> is perhaps Penny Vincenzi's most riveting family saga yet. After smashing successes with the American publication of six of Vincenzi's “marvelously engrossing” (Barbara Taylor Bradford) novels—with more than 500,000 books in print—Overlook is thrilled to offer <i>Windfall</i> to American readers.<br><br> Sensible Cassia Fallon has been married to her doctor husband for seven years when her godmother leaves her a huge fortune. For the first time in her life, she is able to do exactly as she likes, and she starts to question her marriage, her past, her present, and her future. But where did her inheritance really come from and why? Too soon the windfall has become a corrupting force—one that Cassia cannot resist. <br><br> Vincenzi's sharp eye for detail, intricate plots, and cast of vivid characters set in “a world of engrossing and unforgettable glamour and passion” (Dominick Dunne) have made her novels irresistible, and <i>Windfall</i> is no exception.
