About the Book

Lucinda Riley, autora superventas mundial, presenta una nueva y emocionante serie basada en la mitología griega y en la astrología que hará las delicias de sus lectoras.

A la muerte de su padre seis hermanas irán en busca de su origen y lo que descubran les hará comprender que su amor estaba escrito en las estrellas.

Maia D'Apliese y sus hermanas regresan a la impresionante mansión familiar donde crecieron al descubrir que su adorado padre, que las adoptó en distintos lugares cuando no eran más que bebés, acaba de fallecer. Cada una recibe un sobre que contiene una prometedora pista sobre su origen. A Maia, la mayor de las hermanas y nuestra protagonista, la suya le lleva a una casa en ruinas en Río de Janeiro. Allí comenzará a recomponer las piezas de su historia.

Ochenta años antes, en la Belle Époque de Río de Janeiro, el padre de Izabela Bonifacio aspira a que su hija se case con un aristócrata. Por su lado, el arquitecto Heitor da Silva Costa trabaja en la concepción de una inmensa estatua que se llamará el Cristo Redentor, y su búsqueda del escultor idóneo para llevar a cabo tan ambiciosa obra lo conduce hasta París. Apasionada y deseosa de conocer mundo, Izabela convence a su padre para que la deje acompañarlo a París antes de casarse. Allí, entre el estudio de Paul Landowski y los bulliciosos cafés de Montparnasse, Izabela conocerá al ambicioso y joven escultor Laurent Brouilly, y sabrá desde el primer instante que su vida ha cambiado para siempre.

Si quieres saber más, incluso sobre mitología griega, las Pléyades, las esferas armilares..., visita la web de Lucinda Riley en español: esp.lucindariley.co.uk. También encontrarás documentación sobre el Cristo Redentor y el escultor Paul Landowski.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The first book in a series from #1 internationally bestselling author Lucinda Riley, author of The Midnight Rose--hailed as "an extraordinary story [and] a complex, deeply engaging tale filled with fascinating characters" (Library Journal).

Maia D'Apliese and her five sisters gather together at their childhood home, "Atlantis"--a fabulous, secluded castle situated on the shores of Lake Geneva--having been told that their beloved father, who adopted them all as babies, has died. Each sister is handed a tantalizing clue to her true heritage--a clue that takes Maia across the world to a crumbling mansion in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Once there, she begins to put together the pieces of her story.

Eighty years earlier in the Rio of the 1920s, Izabela Bonifacio's father has aspirations for his daughter to marry into the aristocracy. Meanwhile, architect Heitor da Silva Costa is devising plans for an enormous statue, to be called Christ the Redeemer, and will soon travel to Paris to find the right sculptor to complete his vision. Izabela--passionate and longing to see the world--convinces her father to allow her to accompany him and his family to Europe before she is married. There, at Paul Landowski's studio and in the heady, vibrant cafes of Montparnasse, she meets ambitious young sculptor Laurent Brouilly, and knows at once that her life will never be the same again.

In this sweeping, epic tale of love and loss--the first in a unique, spellbinding series--Lucinda Riley showcases her storytelling talents like never before.
