Ravi Kulatunga

Tess Rochester is a young nurse working and living in London. Her parents divorce when she is quite young and she blames her father, Harold, for forcing their family apart. Her mother, Marianne, leaves their family home in Surrey and moves into an apartment in London. She understands, as difficult as it was at the time, that she could not provide for her children, the way Harold could. Not long after the divorce, Harold marries Colleen and she moves into their home with two children of her own. Tess has two older brothers, Marcus and Ernest. There is a weight of expectation that burdens Marcus, the eldest of the siblings. He is expected to excel in the pathways that his father crafts for him. When he no longer wants to be part of the rowing team and drops out of Law School, Harold turns his attention to Ernest. A promising rugby career beckons. However, once again, Harolds overbearing nature drives Ernest away and he too crumples under the weight of expectation. The story begins in Surrey, during Christmas (2017). Marcus has returned from Vietnam, where he currently lives. He always returns to England to spend Christmas with his family. As he is about to drive back up to London, he tells Tess that their father is under investigation by the IRS for tax evasion. This is the first time Tess hears about it and naturally she wants to know more. Marcus accidentally finds out that his father has been moving the profits he makes from business interests in China to a shell company... | Ravi Kulatunga Torment Paperback Book
