Description
The retrospective narration of the story from the French Provence begins in 1998, when Emilia becomes the last descendant of the famous noble family de la Martinie`res. However, the inheritance of the majestic castle and vineyard is burdened with great debts and many questions... Given her ambivalent relationship with her family history, Emilia decides to investigate what really happened with her ancestors and what occurred during World War II... The family saga of the famous noble family is written in a sensitive, emphatic style similar to Lucinda Riley's most successful novel The Secret of the Black Orchid. The author credibly and captivatingly intertwines the stories of individual heroes across different time periods, masterfully capturing the atmosphere of the era and keeping the reader's attention from the first to the last page. She is one of the few contemporary writers who can present a novel – a chronicle in a truly modern style.
