Legacy

Julian, a successful businessman with a hotel in the French Alps, is persuaded to take over the reins of the family business in Yorkshire as his father’s health declines. The business is in the throes of a cycle of neglect, but why are Julian’s attempts to turnaround its fortunes opposed by his siblings?

Julian and his wife, Lotte, seem ill matched, but will news of her pregnancy rejuvenate their relationship? Is Julian’s friendship with Cassandra in the French Alps platonic? Will Lotte’s partying stop with the advent of motherhood? And all the while, an investigation into a missing person looms in the background.

As the Yorkshire business approaches bankruptcy, Julian takes desperate measures to save the business. Is this doomed to fail? Is it even legal? And will his siblings be won round so that the business can be saved? As he grapples with his business woes, boardroom drama, questions about the paternity of his son, Josh, Julian is increasingly drawn to his French business interests and to Cassandra. And will the missing person be thrust into the foreground?
