In this “glittering, Gatsby-esque” (Publishers Weekly) novel, two generations of Quincy women—a bewitching Jazz Age beauty and a young lawyer—are bound by a spectacular and mysterious Indian necklace. 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: an ornate necklace from India that Nell finds stashed in a Crown Royal whiskey bag in the back of a dresser. As predatory relatives circle and art experts begin to question 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 involving Ambrose Quincy, who 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 that May had married his brother Ethan, the “good” Quincy, devoted to their father. As a gesture of friendship, Ambrose gave May the necklace anyway. Crisp as a gin martini, fresh as a twist of lime, The Necklace is the charming and intoxicating story “written with wit, compassion, and a meticulous attention to period and cultural detail” (Kirkus Reviews) of long-simmering family resentments and a young woman who inherits a secret much more valuable than a legendary necklace.

Excerpt from Extracts From the Letters, Diary and Note Books of Amasa Stone Mather, Vol. 1: June 1907 to December 1908 But, although they started together, it was with the dis tinct previous understanding that each was to be free to follow his own inclination and to separate and reunite with his companions, as their respective interests in different countries suggested. The trip having been decided upon a year and a half before graduation, afforded plenty of time for preparation, and they all improved it by following a more or less systematic course of reading, aided by sug gestions Of professors and friends. My son kept a diary and made various notes of partien lar experiences that especially interested him, and the reading Of these and his letters, proved so interesting to his family, that at my request, he has prepared them since his return, so that I may have them printed, and thus bet ter preserved for his and our future pleasure in reread Ing.
