Fellowes, Julian Fellowes — Past Imperfect

Hardcover, hardcover; 2008; Orion Publishing Co; 416pp.; Boek met harde kaft prima; losse stofomslag scheurtje voorplat -- Conditie: Goed; Damian Baxter is hugely wealthy and dying. He lives alone in a big house in Surrey, looked after by a chauffeur, butler, cook and housemaid. He has but one concern - his fortune in excess of GBP500 million and who should inherit it on his death. PAST IMPERFECT is the story of a quest. Damian Baxter wishes to know if he has a living heir. By the time he married in his late thirties he was sterile (the result of adult mumps), but what about before that unfortunate illness? He was not a virgin. Had he sired a child? A letter from a girlfriend from these times suggests he did. But the letter is anonymous. Damian contacts someone he knew from their days at university. He gives him a list of girls he slept with and sets him a task: find his heir!; Engels; ISBN10: 0297855220, ISBN13: 9780297855224
