Final Grade

About

Why would a dying woman leave a $40-million fortune to a man she barely knew—and almost nothing to her only son?

Arthur Rolfe is a council grader driver, a practical man more comfortable behind the controls of a Caterpillar than sitting in a solicitor's office discussing inheritances.

Then Eleanor Vance dies.

To everyone's astonishment, she leaves Arthur almost everything she owns—including Glenrock Park, a magnificent 4,500-acre pastoral estate—and leaves her forty-year-old son, Julian, little more than a silver pocket watch and ten thousand dollars.

There's only one problem.

Arthur can't remember ever meeting her.
