Publisher's Summary

In 2027, Emily is deciding whether to take advantage of a new health service that promises a healthier, stronger baby through gene editing. There’s plenty in her family tree that she would like to protect her unborn child against.

But not everybody loves the so-called designer baby technology.

Decades later, Adelaide is an ambitious political staffer trying to make a difference. Adelaide and her husband are working towards a goal they’ve called The Cyprus Project, but their plans risk being derailed when an unexpected threat looms.

Told across two generations, and two continents, Inheritance is about the legacies we leave our children, the bonds between mothers and daughters, and how it’s never too late to fix our mistakes.

Critic Reviews

'Emotionally powerful, incredibly gripping and truly visionary.' (Tess Woods, author of Love and Other Battles)
'Inheritance is a compelling, thought-provoking page-turner, set in a near future where the intersection between family, fertility and technology have grown ever-more complex. I read this book in a day and I’m still thinking about it weeks later. Perfect for fans of Jodi Picoult.' (Kelly Rimmer, New York Times bestselling author of The Things We Cannot Say)
'I inhaled Inheritance over a few days but the questions it raised will linger in my mind for a long time. Perfect for fans of Jodi Picoult and Audrey Niffenegger.' (Lauren Chater, bestselling author of The Winter Dress)
'Iabsolutely loved this taut, emotional post-pandemic drama about mothers, daughters and advancing technology where the storyline is both speculative and entirely substantiated.' (Anna Downes, author of The Safe Place)
