'A sensual, passion-packed saga.' - Publishers Weekly

Roger Haggard has grown older and settled down. He is now divorced from his first wife, the embittered Jane, and married to his new love Rosalind (Lindy).

His legacy rests entirely on Harry Haggard, Roger's only legitimate son and rightful heir to the Derleth estate.

But matters are complicated as Harry has been forbidden by his mother to set foot on the estate until his father's death and Lindy's downfall.

Harry finds himself a pawn in the feud between his parents. With the legacy of the Haggard family at stake, Roger becomes desperate, overlooking Harry because of his mother. As tensions build and other family members complicate affairs, the family becomes divided.

Will Dirk, a distant Haggard relative, be successful in his plot for the heirship?

Will Rosalind's son, Strolo, cause an upset in the power dynamic?

And can Harry restore the rightly order of the Haggard family by taking his rightful place?

The third and final instalment in Christopher Nicole's searing Haggard Chronicles, The Young Haggards is a story rich in drama and proves to be a worthy ending to the story of the Haggard family.

Praise for Christopher Nicole:



"His action-packed war story will appeal to squadrons of readers" - Library Journal

Born in 1930, Christopher Nicole spent his early years in British Guiana and the West Indies - years that would later strongly influence much of his writing. Many of his fifty novels are historical with a West Indian background. While his well-known Caribee saga tells the history of the British West Indian plantocracy, Haggard tells instead the tale of those West Indian nabobs who returned to England - and the difficulties they encountered there.
