What Was Meant to Bring This Fractured Family Together May Only Succeed in Ripping Them Apart—Forever
Renowned philanthropist and billionaire Paul Parnell had reached the pinnacle of monetary success, but not without cost. Had he put too much emphasis on work, and spent too little time with his family?
Determined to leave something far more valuable than money to his six children, Paul instructs his lawyers to create an unusual last will and testament. This unorthodox will, which stipulates that the lion's share of Paul's two billion dollar estate be given to the heirs who pass "the test," was Paul's last hope of creating a lasting legacy by inspiring his children to give back to society and embrace a code of moral values.
The six children: Rory, Frank, Dan, Monica, Carla, and Ashley, have only one year to make a difference. But what a difference one year will make.
Before these six very different siblings can complete the test, they'll be forced to face their personal demons, and the incredibly evil influence that could claim one of their own.
Fans of John Grisham will love the intrigue of The Test

Good plot. Not great writing. Started out all right but lost something about half way through. It became very rushed and choppy. Was almost like it was written by two different people. Quick and easy read. By no means a best seller. I won't remember it long enough to ever recommend it.

Very suspenseful. I enjoyed how each character evolved over the course of the book.

I ended up staying up way too late to finish this book in one sitting!
