In generous terms, Heugette Clark was an eccentric woman who was left a great fortune. This is a story of her family and how they acquired wealth and how this rich woman's life drifted into what to me would be a strange, nearly nightmarish phase in which she was left without anyone to protect her interests and fell into the hands of folks who would take advantage of her generosity, including those medical professionals who were supposed to be treating her illnesses.
There is much information given in this book, though precious few conclusions were drawn, it was informative. It is really left to the reader to judge, but I found it sad that a woman who began with so much fell prey so easily to the unscrupulous among us. I was dismayed to see that some of those folk were the very people who had sworn oaths to care for and protect those who need it.
This was a long read with much documentary information.
