Summary

A sweeping tale of love and loss, the epic saga of the Seven Sisters begins here. From Lucinda Riley, the international number one bestselling author.

Read by Tuppence Middleton (Thirty Days in Paris, The Doll Factory).

Maia D’Aplièse, in her early thirties, gathers together with her five sisters at their childhood home: a fabulous, secluded castle situated on the shores of Lake Geneva. They have been told that their beloved adoptive father, the elusive billionaire they call Pa Salt, has died.

Each of them is handed a tantalising clue to their true heritage – a clue which takes Maia across the world to a crumbling mansion in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil . . .

Eighty years earlier, in the Belle Époque of Rio, 1927, Izabela Bonifacio’s father has aspirations for his daughter to marry into aristocracy. But Izabela longs for adventure, and convinces him to allow her to accompany the family of a renowned architect on a trip to Paris. In the heady, vibrant streets of Montparnasse, she meets ambitious young sculptor Laurent Brouilly, and knows at once that her life will never be the same again.

The Seven Sisters is the first book in the spellbinding Seven Sisters series, inspired by the mythology of the famous star constellation. It is followed by The Storm Sister.

The Seven Sisters

I was recommended that this series of books were a great read and I was not disappointed. it's not my usual choice, I like murder mysteries, but this book held my attention and I look forward to the next book. Tuppence Middleton is a great reader and captured the voices and accents brilliantly- no mean feat!

Oh my goodness!! Amazing

My mother in law and auntie recommended this to me, and to be perfectly honest I didn’t think I would like it. But was I wrong! I started listening to the first book and could not stop. I am now looking forward to reading all the books and trust each one is As amazing as the first.

Wonderful story

This is a strangely gripping tale. It includes passion and tragedy and I can’t wait to read the next in the series.

Great story

So easy to listen to. Quite emotional, keeping you interested to want to listen more. So relieved they’re many more to listen to.

Well worth a read - perfect for long distance journeys

Well written, with wonderful descriptions. Not my usual kind of novel, obiusky quite unrealistic but it has not deterred me, I will read the next one!

Wonderful story

Narrated beautifully. I'm looking forward to the rest of the books very much. Transported me away from reality.

A very clever mystery story outline

A very engaging and well written story which once started could not be put down but what I find intriguing is the way the author must have plotted from the start the interwoven lives of the seven sisters which will make the reader want to no doubt read every book in the series. Well done.
