Maia D'Apliese and her five sisters gather together at their childhood home, 'Atlantis' - a fabulous, secluded castle situated on the shores of Lake Geneva - having been told that their beloved father, the elusive billionaire they call Pa Salt, has died. Maia and her sisters were all adopted by him as babies and, discovering he has already been buried at sea, each of them is handed a tantalising clue to their true heritage - a clue which takes Maia across the world to a crumbling mansion in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. Once there, she begins to put together the pieces of where her story began ...

Eighty years earlier, in the Belle Epoque of Rio, 1927, Izabela Bonifacio's father has aspirations for his daughter to marry into aristocracy. Meanwhile, architect Heitor da Silva Costa is working on a statue, to be called Christ the Redeemer, and will soon travel to Paris to find the right sculptor to complete his vision. Izabela - passionate and longing to see the world - convinces her father to allow her to accompany him and his family to Europe before she is married.

Acabou e eu queria mais

A Lucinda Riley foi excepcional nesse livro de abertura da série. O mistério do pai é como a conexão das irmãs são o centro de tudo.

A autora foi excepcional ao pegar fatos históricos e juntar com ficção. Ainda mais quando falamos de Paris e Rio de Janeiro.

São muitos detalhes e muitas gerações ao longo da narrativa mas tudo foi muito bem construído, apesar de um pouco cansativo. Agora e vamos da segunda irmã.
