Book two in the series and my love for it is definitely not diminishing yet! Another big book and yet there wasn’t enough of Ally’s story. Lucinda Riley has woven a beautiful and complex storyline with many elements, into the chapters of this book, with just wonderful talent and finesse.
There was a tiny dip where my interest in the storyline waned a little bit – but it picked up fairly quickly and the secrets that unravelled more than made up for it. The little glimpse at the next sisters story at the end was also very intriguing as well as the hints along the way of the storylines yet to come.
About the Book
Ally D’Aplièse, in her early thirties, is about to compete in one of the world’s most perilous yacht races when she hears the news of her adoptive father’s sudden, mysterious death. Rushing back to meet her five sisters at their family home, she discovers that her father – an elusive billionaire affectionately known to his daughters as Pa Salt – has left each of them a tantalizing clue to their true heritage.
Ally recently embarked on a deeply passionate love affair that will change her destiny forever. But with her life now turned upside down, Ally decides to leave the open seas and follow the trail that her father left her, leading to the icy beauty of Norway . . .
There, Ally begins to discover her roots – and how her story is inextricably bound to that of a young unknown singer, Anna Landvik, who lived there over a hundred years before, and sang in the first performance of Grieg’s iconic music set to Ibsen’s play ‘Peer Gynt’. As Ally learns more about Anna, she also begins to question who her father, Pa Salt, really was. And she begins to wonder: why is their seventh sister missing?
