About the Book…
Step back into the world of Lucinda Riley’s Seven Sisters . . .
From Harry Whittaker, the co-author of the instant No 1 international bestseller Atlas: The Story of Pa Salt, comes an epic mystery set in the world of the Seven Sisters.
Reader favourite antiquarian bookseller Orlando Forbes – first introduced in The Shadow Sister – returns in this dual timeline saga. When Orlando uncovers a hidden cache of manuscripts in an old Harrow rectory, his investigation draws us deeper into the private longings and unresolved fractures of the character’s own life.
Across dual timelines, his search for the truth about a forgotten Victorian author becomes a mirror to his own story, revealing buried betrayals, guarded hearts, and the courage it takes, in any century, to claim your true name.
Expect exciting appearances from beloved Seven Sisters characters, and discover how their lives have been shaped following the events of Atlas: The Story of Pa Salt.
This is Orlando’s story . . .
