I really liked this book! I'd be best friends with Lorelei and Ovid!

This book was amazing, the characters personality traits really express how some people feel when they have lost their parents and live in a dangerous environment, not allowed to even leave their own house. There was such a plot twist towards the end and this book has really broadened my horizons. I will definetly be reading more books by Gareth P. Jones.

The perfect adventure story with just the right balance of humour , creepiness and emotion(but not too mushy)

I thought this was a great book filled with action and mystery this tale was fiction and my favorite character was Mr Crutcher because at first i thought he was a nice man who was just looking after them but then it turns out him to be evil and he was quite good and hiding his true identity. I would recommend this to someone who like mystery tales.

I really enjoyed this book: I really liked the storyline, and though I found it quite funny to begin with, I was still really interested and found it tense at the end. The only reason why I'm not giving it 5 stars is because I personally had to wait a bit before I was fully interested, but still amazing! I would definitely recommend this book!

I thought it was good. I was surprised at the ending, and although i read loads of mysteries it came as a surprise. My favourite character was either Lorelli or Ovid Thornthwaite. Lorelli because we botgh like reading and are quite similar in a couple of ways. Ovid because I think that he is quite funny because he's so sarcastic. It interested me because I like mysteries, murder, theft, anything will do. I would recommend it to people who like mysteries

This book was really good and worth every penny.

Apart from the super cool last name (coincidental), this story kept me hooked all the way through. In fact, I've read it about 30 times! It's a great whodunit about two young orphans, the Thornthwaite twins, who seem to have a desire to kill each other. However, it is not all as it seems. Will they find out who is really plotting to kill them, before the time runs out....? You'll have to read it to find out.

Great murder mystery really gets you hooked with cliff hangers and new murders

The Thornthwaite Inheritance is a very funny book and seems like a long book but if your into it can be read quite quickly. Small chapters help and writing easy to read.

I RECCOMEND THIS BOOK because its funny dark mysterious and makes you want to read on.

A tale of envy between siblings. What length would you go to to get that all important inheritance. But the plot does become confusing after a while it's a guessing game of who's dead or who's alive. Also having the underlying who murdered who spectacle throughout the tale. The ending will surprise? you bears and killers bees that all i'll say.

This book is where the twins - Ovid and Lorelli - try to kill each other! I like this brilliant book because it has murder, mystery and menace. The mystery is entwined with murder and menacing characters and that is why I love this.
