Description by Author:
1960. Matriarch Violet Woods buries her
firstborn. But not lacking in fortitude, she soon produces five replicas.
Violet, a woman with barely concealed neurotic psychosis, stifles the Woods
brothers under her protective wing.
As the Woods’ hotel empire grows and the
decades pass, the boys coerce their way into adulthood, each with their own
secrets and flaws.
Through Katherine Black’s signature style of
probing into the blackest depths of suspense, The Last Matriarch is a story of
power, vengeance, murder and intrigue...
As they rise, the Woods show no mercy.
However, when she comes, vengeance checks in with hatred in her overnight bag.
...And let’s not forget that firstborn child.
