Succession fans who want some supernatural flair will certainly want to give the novel a read. The front cover offers some Clue vibes, but the family dynamics make it clear that there is one person to impress when it comes to skill: Allegra Winter.
Yes, the Winter family made a deal with the Devil generations ago, and Allegra isn’t afraid to continue the traditions. She does it under the guise of protecting the family and everything they have accomplished, but she acts out of jealousy, fear, and control. After all, with her gift to get people to do what she wants, she’s used to having all of the control.
Meanwhile, we have Cecily, the black sheep of the family. She has always disappointed the family, becoming the one everyone can blame their problems on. Her brother Felix is a momma’s boy and can do no wrong, and her sister Octavia is the spitting image of their mother, Allegra. However, Cecily has something none of them have: a conscience.
We see the story through her eyes, getting to see how she develops as she finds out secrets and puts the mystery puzzle pieces together. As family members start turning up dead, Cecily takes it upon herself to really get to the bottom of it, making it clear that she doesn’t just want a scapegoat but the truth.
Courtesy of Penguin Random HouseI want to repeat that. Cecily’s journey is realistic. She wants to be accepted by her family, but at the same time, she’s aghast at everything they do. As the black sheep, she has always wanted to have her mom say that she wants and needs her, even that she loves her, but she knows that actions mean more than words, anyway. It’s a difficult feeling to grasp and understand, but Foxfield does a wonderful job of explaining it through Cecily’s eyes.
My favorite part? The ending. Cecily has to make the choice, and she makes the only one that she can. The best thing is that she’s not sacrificing something about herself to make that choice. I’m not going to give away the exact details of the decision she makes, but it’s not one of the two choices on offer. It’s something that she figures out along the way, as she finds out just how much bad her family has done.
In the end, there is an element of sacrifice, but not in the way that you would expect. It opens the door for a second novel, and I’m here if Foxfield wants to write it.
