The Sun Sister

Electra's Story

De: Lucinda Riley

Narrado por: Pippa Bennett-Warner

From the frenetic atmosphere of Manhattan to the magnificent wide-open plains of Africa, The Sun Sister is the sixth epic tale in the Seven Sisters series by the number one bestseller Lucinda Riley. A breathtaking story of love and loss, inspired by the mythology of the famous star constellation.

To the outside world Electra D’Aplièse, in her mid-twenties, seems to have it all: as one of the world’s top models, she is beautiful, rich and famous.

Yet Electra’s already tenuous control over her state of mind has been rocked by the death of her father, Pa Salt, the elusive billionaire who adopted his six daughters from across the globe. Struggling to cope, she turns to alcohol and drugs. As those around her fear for her health, Electra receives a letter from a stranger claiming to be her grandmother . . .

In 1939, Cecily Huntley-Morgan arrives in Kenya from New York to nurse a broken heart. Staying with her godmother, a member of the infamous Happy Valley set, she meets Bill Forsythe, a notorious bachelor and cattle farmer with close connections to the proud Maasai tribe. But after a shocking discovery, and with war looming, Cecily has few options. Moving up into the Wanjohi Valley, she is isolated and alone. That is, until she meets a young woman in the woods – and makes her a promise that will change the course of her life forever . . .

The epic, multi-million selling series continues with The Missing Sister.

Reseñas de la Crítica

Lucinda Riley turns up the heat – in more ways than one – in the sixth, sizzling and penultimate installment of her thrilling Seven Sisters series. The Sun Sister is her most dazzling, daring, and deeply insightful novel yet. (Lancashire Evening Post)

A masterclass in beautiful writing. (The Sun)

Every book by Lucinda Riley is a journey in technicolour through space and time (La Stampa (Italy))

This novel, like most of Riley’s books, reveals a great passion for history and research. Lucinda weaves together details from various locations, cultures and epochs and gives the reader a deep impression of the different characters (NRK (Norway))

The Sun Sister is amazing, brilliant and wonderful to read. The Seven Sisters Series just gets better and more ambitious. (Bookliterati (UK))

A brilliant page-turner just soaked in glamour and romance (Daily Mail, on The Seven Sisters)

Wonderful book, but the narrator is very annoying

This is one of my favorite stories of the series because I find Africa fascinating but the narrator is a British woman doing an American accent and she does pretty well except she pronounces Tucson, Arizona “Tuxon” and I’m unclear how the publishers didn’t correct her. She also pronounces Kenya “Keenya” which was very irritating because it comes up quite often, but not as irritating as Tuxon.
