Building on the success of the bestselling The Seven Sisters and The Storm Sister, The Shadow Sister is the third spellbinding novel in Lucinda Riley's enchanting historical fiction series of love and loss, inspired by the myth of the Seven Sisters constellation. Star D'Aplièse is at a crossroads in her life after the sudden death of her beloved father--the elusive billionaire, affectionately called Pa Salt by his six daughters, all adopted from across the four corners of the world. He has left each of them a clue to their true heritage, and Star's clue leads her to an antiquarian bookshop in London, and the start of a new journey. A hundred years earlier, headstrong and independent Flora MacNichol vows she will never marry. She is happy in her home in England's picturesque Lake District--just a stone's throw away from her childhood idol, Beatrix Potter. But when circumstances carry her to London, and into the home of one of Edwardian England's most notorious society hostesses, Alice Keppel, she finds herself a pawn in a larger game; forced to choose between passionate love and duty to her family. That is, until a meeting with a mysterious gentleman reveals answers Flora has been searching for... Star's voyage of discovery takes her deep into Flora's remarkable story, and into her own past. But the more she uncovers, the more Star begins to question herself, and her place in the world. Ideal for fans of Downton Abbey and the historical fiction of Kate Morton and Kristin Hannah, The Shadow Sister is the perfect curl-up-in-an-armchair read (Daily Mail) for anyone who wants to travel through the lush English countryside and explore the lives and loves of the British aristocracy. Blending past and present, this book is a beautifully crafted dual-timeline novel that explores identity, legacy, and the enduring power of family.
