Turmoil at the Villas is the sequel to Hernando Villa and is the continuing saga of the Hernando family. It continues to give a colourful but real idea of Sri Lankan life. The main theme of the book is that ancient old story of an upper-class boy falling in love with a lower-class girl. This theme is explored in an interesting manner in the context of Sri Lankan customs and attitudes. William, the younger brother, falls in love with a girl who the family regards as being far beneath them in social standing! William also has a natural talent for cricket and blossoms forth into a world-class cricketer. He plays in the Final of the Cricket World Cup between India and Sri Lanka. Turmoil at the Villa also deals with political intrigue and corruption in high places. Reshan Hernando, the head of the family, has long eschewed politics; but he is finally persuaded to contest a seat in Parliament and is subsequently appointed a Senior Cabinet Minister. He is a novice in this dirty game of politics and cannot see through the corruption and manoeuvrings that are taking place. When he finally does see what is going on and takes action, tragedy befalls the family.
