Wheel of Fortune Part IV

After the war, the tensions between the 2 cousins carry on, and then both of their wives die around the same time. Anna is killed in a car crash, and Bella gets pregnant and has a termination because she was injured in the same crash, and she dies too. Harry tries to cope with his 4 sons, and Kester is alone. He has a nervous breakdown, and a little later, he kills Thomas, his uncle, who had been rude to Anna because of her Jewishness. Panicking, he calls Harry for help. Harry realises that Kester is going to try and blame Tom's death on him, and he tells Kester that he will help him cover up the killing, as long as Kester does what he wants. He blackmails Kester into ceding Oxmoon to him, and saying he will go and live in Dublin with his Irish relatives. John dies, suddenly, and he does not leave his estates outside Oxmoon to Harry as his son had expected. He leaves a complicated will, with the lands that Harry hoped to inherit going to the children of Marian, John's elder daughter. So Harry fears that some day, Kester will return to Gower to confront him and if he loses Oxmoon he has nothing to fall back on.
