Resumen del Editor

Jilly Cooper returns with love, high living, intrigue and a missing painting.

No picture ever came more beautiful than Raphael's Pandora. Discovered by a dashing young lieutenant, Raymond Kelvedon, in a Normandy chateau in 1944, she had cast her spell over his family - all artists and dealers - for 50 years. Hanging in a turret of their lovely Cotswold house, Pandora witnessed Raymond's tempestuous wife, Galena, both entertaining a string of lovers and giving birth to her four children: Jupiter, Alizarin, Jonathan and superbrat Sienna. Then an exquisite stranger rolls up, claiming to be a long-lost daughter of the family, setting the three Belvedon brothers at each other's throats. Accompanying her is her fatally glamorous boyfriend, whose very different agenda includes an unhealthy interest in the Raphael.

During a fireworks party, the painting is stolen. The hunt to retrieve it takes the listener on a thrilling journey to Vienna, Geneva, Paris, New York and London. After a nail-biting court case and a record-smashing Old Masters sale at Sotheby's, passionate love triumphs, and Pandora is restored to her rightful home.

ok, my friends are 'too cool for school' in that they are horrified at my J.Cooper addiction.... how can you swing from S.Sontag one minute to Cooper the next.... easy, not only is she an atidote to today's P.C propoganda she is a wonderful story teller and describer of animals and nature. Jilly Cooper is adorable.
