From the Sunday Times No.1 Bestselling author comes the sixth novel in an epic multi-million selling series, The Seven Sisters.
 
To the outside world, Electra D'Aplièse 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. Until she meets a young woman in the woods and makes her a promise that will change the course of her life for ever.
 
Reich, berühmt und bildschön: das ist Elektra d’Aplièse, die als Model ein glamouröses Leben in New York führt. Doch der Schein trügt – in Wahrheit ist sie eine verzweifelte junge Frau, die im Begriff ist, ihr Leben zu ruinieren. Da taucht eines Tages ihre Großmutter Stella auf, von deren Existenz Elektra nichts wusste. Sie ist ein Adoptivkind und kennt ihre Wurzeln nicht. Als Stella ihr die berührende Lebensgeschichte der jungen Amerikanerin Cecily Huntley-Morgan erzählt, öffnet sich für Elektra die Tür zu einer neuen Welt. Denn Cecily lebte in den 1940er Jahren auf einer Farm in Afrika – wo einst Elektras Schicksal seinen Anfang nahm …
