The Obsession — Catherine Cookson

Pine Hurst has been home to the wealthy Steel family for generations. And since her mother's death, eldest daughter Beatrice has controlled the estate -- ruling her father, Simon, and her three younger sisters with an iron fist. For Beatrice, controlling Pine Hurst has become an obsession.
Simon's sudden death forces his daughters to realize some alarming truths -- the least of which is that they could lose their home. But this only intensifies Beatrice's crazed fixation with Pine Hurst. As her sisters do whatever they can to break free from their past, Beatrice will stop at nothing -- cheating, lying, manipulating -- to hold on to her most prized possession.
