À propos de ce contenu audio

The Seven Sisters is the story that began it all. An epic tale of love and loss, it tells the stories of the D’Aplièse sisters, all adopted as babies by the enigmatic billionaire they affectionately call Pa Salt.

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


This is Maia’s story. When Pa Salt dies suddenly, the bereaved sisters gather together at their childhood home, a spectacular secluded castle on the shores of Lake Geneva. Each of them is handed a tantalising clue to their heritage and Maia finds herself on a journey across the world to a crumbling mansion in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Eighty years earlier, Izabela Bonifacio’s father has aspirations for her to marry into the aristocracy. But Izabela longs for adventure, and convinces him to allow her to first travel to Paris. In the heady, vibrant streets of the city, Izabela meets an ambitious young sculptor, and knows at once that her life will never be the same again.

What links these two young women? In the beautiful city of Rio, will Maia find the answers she needs to understand who she truly is?

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.

Commentaires

A brilliant page-turner just soaked in glamour and romance
Riley is one of the strongest authors in this genre of historical fiction . . . excellent historical detail, heart-wrenching romance, and an engaging mystery (Historical Novel Society)
Like the famous statue that brought the lovers together and hovers over Rio today, the story is elegantly sculpted and rich with history (Library Journal, USA)

A millionaires adopted daughter goes to an exotic country to find out about her family roots. Of course she is rich, beautiful, and intelligent. Highly unrealistic “ airport” novel. Had a hard time finishing it. Boring and predictable!

It’s an easy read.

I loved this story and the reader's performance was outstanding! I could really hear the different characters and pictures them perfectly in my mind.

very good reading

I really loved the story and its pace, the only thing that bothered me - and it bothered me a lot as a French person - is the horrendous rendition of French words and sentences (almost robotic) and French accent by the reader. I really wish she would have abstained because, other than that, it was absolutely great.
But I guess for a non French speaker it doesn’t matter as much ?
Can’t wait to listen to the second book :)

Very enjoyable read

Très belle histoire, bien racontée, j’ai hâte de lire la suite . J’ai préféré la fin que le début

Facile à écouter et comprendre ( en tant que français)
