The Entail

Set in early 19th-century Scotland, this novel explores the complexities of family dynamics and societal expectations through the lens of inheritance and property. The story centers around a family entangled in legal and emotional conflicts arising from an entail, a legal mechanism that restricts the inheritance of estate. As characters navigate love, ambition, and the constraints imposed by their lineage, the narrative delves into themes of duty, identity, and the impact of societal norms on personal choices.
