Fatal inheritance

On New Year's Day, 1900, the brilliant violinist Sebastian Cavendish is found dead. But in the final hours of 1899 he wrote a cryptic suicide note mentioning a 'cursed inheritance', took poison, and died. His friends and relations are utterly perplexed. The man they knew and grieve for was vivacious, exuberant and extroverted. So, why, would he change his plans at such short notice, and take his own life. Established detective Vanessa Weatherburn is engaged to investigate the dead man's final movements. She must cross continents and trace every lead to uncover the mystery of Sebastian's inheritance, and why it meant his death.
