About this listen

From artist studios in Montmartre, to the Côte d’Azur and couture houses of Paris and London in the '50s, Parisian Legacy is a sweeping story of love, betrayal, and redemption.

Privilege, tragedy, and family secrets shape the lives of Alice and Juniper, two young women brought together on the cusp of adulthood. When Alice’s parents are tragically killed, she moves to Paris to live with her mother’s society sister. Despite the opulence of her new life, she prefers the bohemian friends of her late parents and parties in Montmartre. It is here she meets her passionate first love, the enigmatic artist Xavier.

A chance meeting at the Dior salon in Paris, brings the pampered Juniper into Alice’s life, setting in motion the slow unravelling of their lives.

Years later, Juniper’s son mysteriously inherits Alice’s diaries, her Normandy home, and forgotten artworks by the posthumously famous Xavier. When he finally uncovers the truth, it threatens everything he holds dear. A furore ensues when the art world hears of the "lost" paintings, and a major Paris exhibition is the backdrop for life changing revelations, affirmations, and new beginnings.

Enjoyable family saga

A gripping story with interesting characters set mostly in France. Beautiful descriptions. Just a real shame that the voice reading the story very obviously did not speak French so the various characters sound more like cod or joke French accents and any actual French just is not real. It really took my focus away from the story and was such a shame.

Parisian Legacy

Oh Wow, an amazing extremely well written book, & the audio version too is extremely good. For me, I reckon it was the best book, I've ever read. Certainly one to recommend to others.

Be transported to France with this wonderful saga

This is great read with interesting family dynamics and transports you to a different time and place. It made for a compelling listen on long train journeys and I look forward to listening to the next book narrated by the author. Susan
