The Missing Sister: Lucinda Riley (The Seven Sisters, 7)

Product Information

As ever, the characters of this story were well developed and intriguing, complexities are explored and the author is forever developing new threads to her story. So many questions simmer to the surface and the tension and suspicion apparent from chapter one is maintained right until the big final, breathtaking reveal. Intalneste persoane influente care par dornici sa o ajute: fratii Edward si Gloria, iar mai apoi il cunoste pe Oliver, un jurnalist american plin de farmec, in fata caruia nu poate rezista. Mistero di cui è venuta a conoscenza casualmente, con l’apprendere di un terribile fatto di cronaca che coinvolse entrambi i genitori e in particolare modo la madre, accusata di essere la responsabile della sparizione della figlioletta appena nata.

Bedridden at the age of 24, she started writing her first novel, Lovers and Players (1992), a tale of three women’s intertwined lives set against a backdrop of the West End and Hollywood. Un biletel anonim de avertizare asupra celor in care are incredere si care o face sa se intrebe daca in Oliver sa aiba incredere sau in cei doi frati, e avertizata si in privinta lui Oliver ca e un mare crai si se dovedește din pacate ca ii sfasie inima.

It was set in Burma most of the time but did swing back to England to fill in the back story of the missing daughter. It was easy to see her best friend in him when they were both in the place where they always played. She is a plucky young woman and is not easily thrown off the scent as she battles riots, intruders and bomb attacks.

This quest makes up the backbone of the story and the sense of mystery, secrecy and intrigue is evident from the very beginning. She cried for her mother, for her father, for her sister that refused to talk to her, for all her friends that have already died, and for the friends that would die, she cried for her and she cried for James. You’ll see the worst of human nature and the best; the consequences of the past and how it affects people in the future. Belle’s anguish and fear had become my own … One of my favourite scenes has to be the hot air balloon ride – not just for the things that I saw but the effect it had on Belle. Gentle, precocious, talented, he flourishes in his new home, and the family show him a life he hadn’t dreamed possible.The storyline about Belle’s mother Diana and how she fell under suspicion, was an interesting angle. The Tea Planter’s Wife is so much more than a conventional love story, with all its twists and turns and guilt and betrayal. We are on a tea plantation in 1920s Ceylon and 19 year old Gwendolyn Hooper is the new bride of the owner, a wealthy and charming widower. The use of the journal found in the present to bridge the gap to the past was such an excellent way to move the story back and forth in time. Biography: Lucinda Riley was born in 1965 in Ireland and, after an early career as an actress in film, theatre and television, wrote her first novel aged twenty-four.
