Summary
A huge inheritance ignites a murderous family feud. The last living beneficiaries, the two Finsbury Brothers, will stop at nothing to outlive each other -- and win the fortune. Helping the irascible, poverty-stricken Masterman Finsbury is his shy grandson Michael. Opposing them are his eccentric younger brother, Joseph Finsbury, and a pair of greedy nephews, Morris and John.
