Summary

For 30 years, Christopher lived a life only few people could even imagine. It was a world in which money meant everything and nothing and where excess was simply a part of the daily menu. By chance, he was unable to embark on the family cruise with the rest of his overprivileged relatives aboard a private yacht, customized to the tune of $750,000,000.00.

In a family that has everything, one tends to forget that some things are beyond even their control. After fate sends the family an unmistakable message, Christopher suddenly finds himself on the receiving end of a financial avalanche, yet fully incapable of managing or even understanding the full magnitude of it. In a world beset with vipers and jackals, he would be as helpless as a sheep led to slaughter in handling the family’s substantial financial assets.

Luckily, his grandfather still has enough time to impart the knowledge that will save the family legacy, but the measures that must be taken to do so, are drastic and must be implemented immediately. Although the entire ordeal seems excessive and unrealistic to Christopher, his grandfather’s mind has already been made up, and soon Christopher must face something unheard of in his family’s lineage: reality.

A story to lift your spirits

I received a code for this audio in exchange for an honest review.

The first thing I need to mention is the wonderful skill in writing an uplifting book, where the author uses the power of words to affirm his positive messaging.

I tend to be a cynical person but the story was so beautifully written I felt at ease with the messaging and just let myself enjoy the story.

The narration by Alice Dodd was also beautiful and her tone and voice suited the story so well, I will definitely search out other books by her.

The world of Christopher Worthy is one of wealthy, priviledge and class, when a tragedy strikes his family he is given a task to earn and inherit the entire family fortune. Whilst he is prepared to work hard for the fortune, he doesn't expect the additional joys of life that unexpectedly come his way, the joys of friendship, of belonging and a sense of purpose.

Another great book by this great author

Another feel good book by this author. the pace of the book and narration was spot on.
The book grabs your attention from the very beginning, and doesnt let go till the end, to the point that I listened to it from start to finish nonstop. I wont spoil the story by giving anything away, but wish real life was like this.
Highly recommend this book, and others by this author.
On to the next one.
