Explore the arid fields of Central Australia in The Pearl Sister, the fourth book of the renowned Seven Sisters series by Lucinda Riley. A captivating tale of love and loss, inspired by the mythology of the famous constellation.
CeCe D’Aplièse, in her mid-twenties, has never felt that she belongs anywhere. After the death of her father, the mysterious billionaire Pa Salt, she finds herself in crisis. She decides to leave art college and watches her beloved sister, Star, distance herself to follow her new love, leaving her completely alone.
In despair, CeCe decides to leave England and discover her past. The only clues she has are a black and white photograph and the name of a woman who was a pioneer in Australia over a hundred years ago. On her way to Sydney, CeCe visits the unique place where she has always felt close to herself: the stunning beaches of Krabi, Thailand. There, among the backpackers, she meets the mysterious Ace, a man as lonely as she is, who seems to be hiding a secret.
A hundred years earlier, Kitty McBride, the daughter of a leading clergyman in Edinburgh, has the chance to travel to Australia as the companion of the wealthy Mrs. McCrombie. In Adelaide, her fate intertwines with the family of Mrs. McCrombie, including the twins who are simultaneously but entirely different: the impulsive Drummond and the ambitious Andrew, who is the heir to a pearl fortune.
When CeCe reaches the hot desert of Australia’s Red Centre, she begins her search for her past. As something deep within her reacts to the energy of the region and the ancient Aboriginal culture, her creativity awakens again. With the help of those she meets along her journey, CeCe starts to believe that this wild, vast continent could offer her something she never thought possible: a sense of belonging and a home.
The epic, bestselling series continues with The Moon Sister.
