The necklace / Claire McMillan. by McMillan, Claire. Touchstone, 2017. Call #: FICTION MCM Subjects Rich people -- Fiction.   Adultery -- Fiction.   Triangles (Interpersonal relations) -- Fiction.   Inheritance and succession -- Fiction.   Heirlooms -- Fiction.   Necklaces -- Fiction.   Family secrets -- Fiction.   Nineteen twenties -- Fiction. ISBN:  9781501165047 (hc.) 1501165046 (hc.) Edition:  1st Touchstone hardcover ed. Description:  302 p. ; 23 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references (p. 301-302). Summary:  "Always the black sheep of the tight-knit Quincy clan, Nell is cautious when she’s summoned to the elegantly shabby family manor after her great-aunt Loulou’s death. A cold reception from the family grows chillier when they learn Loulou has left Nell a fantastically valuable heirloom: a stunningly ornate necklace from India that Nell finds stashed in the back of a dresser in a Crown Royal whiskey bag. As predatory relatives begin circling and art experts begin questioning the necklace’s provenance, Nell turns to the only person she thinks she can trust--the attractive and ambitious estate lawyer who definitely is not part of the old-money crowd. More than just a piece of jewelry, the necklace links Nell to a long-buried family secret. It began when Ambrose Quincy brought the necklace home from India in the 1920s as a dramatic gift for May, the woman he intended to marry. Upon his return, he discovered the May had married his brother Ethan, the 'good' Quincy, devoted to their father. As a gesture of friendship, Ambrose gave May the necklace anyway--reigniting their passion and beginning a tense love triangle. Crisp as a gin martini, fresh as a twist of lime, The Necklace is the intelligent, intoxicating story of long-simmering family resentments and a young woman who inherits a secret much more valuable than a legendary necklace."--From publisher.
