While Asian tradition would usually expect Su Yi to leave the estate to her eldest son, Philip, many believed she'd bequeath it to his son, her favorite grandson, Nicholas. She has a massive fortune, capped by Tyersall Park, a 64-acre estate on prime land in Singapore. Su Yi, the matriarch of the Young Family, is on her deathbed. The problem is that they all have too much money, and it's come so easily to them that they think they're bloody geniuses and so they are always right.' 'Peel away the veneer of wealth and sophistication and you'll find extremely provincial, narrow-minded people.

Campy, a bit melodramatic, and utterly outrageous, Kwan's tales of three generations of Chinese families, set mostly in Singapore, provides a hysterical glimpse into how the ultra-rich live. (It leaves my head clearer than drinking would, anyway.) Kevin Kwan's Rich People Problems, the third in his Crazy Rich Asians series, was just the ticket. Sometimes the best antidote for the craziness of the world is reading a wacky book. In this sweeping tale that takes us from the elegantly appointed mansions of Manila to the secluded private islands in the Sulu Sea, from a kidnapping at Hong Kong's most elite private school to a surprise marriage proposal at an Indian palace that is caught on camera by the telephoto lenses of paparazzi, Kevin Kwan hilariously reveals the long-buried secrets of Asia's most privileged families and their rich people problems. Meanwhile, Kitty Pong, married to China's second richest man, Jack Bing, still feels upstaged by her new stepdaughter, famous fashionista Colette Bing. As Su Yi's relatives fight over heirlooms, Astrid Leong is at the center of her own storm, desperately in love with her old sweetheart Charlie Wu but tormented by her ex-husband-a man hell-bent on destroying Astrid's reputation and relationship. With each family member vying to inherit Tyersall Park-a trophy estate on sixty-four prime acres in the heart of Singapore-Nicholas' childhood home turns into a hotbed of backbiting and intrigue.

The entire Shang-Young clan has convened from all corners of the globe to stake claim to their matriarch's massive fortune. When Nicholas Young hears that his grandmother, Su Yi, is on her deathbed, he rushes to be by her bedside-but he's not alone. Kevin Kwan, bestselling author of Crazy Rich Asians and China Rich Girlfriend, is back with an uproarious new novel featuring a family driven by fortune, an ex-wife driven psychotic with jealousy, a battle royal fought through couture-gown sabotage, and the heir to one of Asia's greatest fortunes locked out of his inheritance.
