One autumn afternoon, among boxes of forgotten municipal accounts, he finds a recurring entry-£5,000, marked every eighteen months for two centuries, always sealed by the same enigmatic ligature.

Produktbeschreibung
In the hushed vaults of a provincial archive, Elias Thorne spends his days tending to the quiet dead: ledgers, letters, lives long extinguished. One autumn afternoon, among boxes of forgotten municipal accounts, he finds a recurring entry-£5,000, marked every eighteen months for two centuries, always sealed by the same enigmatic ligature. What begins as a scholarly curiosity becomes an obsession that leads him from dusty corridors to a sunlit chateau in Provence, where lavender fields stretch to the horizon and a vintage Rolls-Royce waits on the gravel as though it has always belonged to him.As Elias traces the hidden fortune of the Ashworth bloodline-his bloodline-he discovers that the true inheritance is not measured in gold or land, but in a way of seeing the world: the calm, unshakable assumption that wealth is natural, inevitable, and already complete. Past and present blur. The boundaries between archivist and heir dissolve. And somewhere between the scent of century-old paper and the golden light of a vineyard at dusk, Elias realises the fortune was never lost; it was simply waiting for him to step into the life that was always his.Lyrical, hypnotic, and quietly opulent, The Inheritance That Was Always Yours is a novel for readers who loved The Remains of the Day, Possession, and the golden-hour spell of Donna Tartt. A literary tale of discovery, legacy, and the subtle magic that turns belief into reality.
