«Legacy» is the general fiction novel by Lynda La Plante, published by Simon & Schuster in paperback (688 pages, in English).
Hugh is a veteran Welsh miner; his daughter Evelyne falls in love with a man of turbulent past, and the boxer Freedom, saved from the gallows, aspires to the world heavyweight title. Between the poverty of the Welsh valleys, Prohibition-era America and Britain at war, the novel follows a family marked by a curse.
It is the first installment of Lynda La Plante's «Legacy» series. The work was published in 1987 under the title «The Legacy»; this edition is the revised and updated 30th anniversary one.
A suitable read for book clubs and for those who enjoy mystery and British narrative.
