Legacy Locked Book

They inherited material wealth. And chaos.

Will, Harper, and Nora Lee Dawson are heirs to a vast Southern empire. But when their father dies without a will and their calculating mother disappears, the family’s motto becomes a curse. Do they “Protect our assets? Trust nobody?”

Threats include legal ambiguity, AI manipulation, cyber predators, bizarre beneficiaries, and new advisors with contradictory expertise. To unlock – and protect- their family legacy, the siblings must develop new powers that their parents never taught them: Hope. Agency. Resilience. Optimism.

They have to do what they’ve never done before— trust each other.

The backstory:  I wrote this psychological thriller in 2025 after a family ski trip.  All my favorite people were reading thrillers…  So, I began asking them questions.  That led to more research.  Writing a draft in 3 months.  Hiring a professional editor.  Months of editing.  Seeking reviewers.  Launching on Aug 15, 2025 to massive reader acclaim.  

Fiction appeals to a different part of our brains.  This story has countless surprises… Enjoy!
