A sweeping and spellbinding love story spanning the warm waters of the Mediterranean to the cold, clear skies of Norway--the second in an epic new series of novels by #1 internationally bestselling author Lucinda Riley.
Ally D'Apli�se is about to compete in one of the world's most perilous yacht races when she hears the news of her adoptive father's sudden, mysterious death. Rushing back to meet her five sisters at their family home, she discovers that her father--an elusive billionaire affectionately known to his daughters as Pa Salt--has left each of them a tantalizing clue to their true heritage.
But the timing couldn't be worse: Ally had only recently fallen into a new and deeply passionate love affair, but with her life now turned upside down, she decides to leave the open seas and follow the trail that her father left her, which leads her to the icy beauty of Norway...
There, Ally begins to discover her roots and how her story is inextricably bound to that of a young unknown singer, Anna Landvik, who lived over a century before and sang in the first performance of Grieg's iconic music set to Ibsen's play Peer Gynt. As Ally learns more about Anna, she also begins to question who her father, Pa Salt, really was--and why is the seventh sister missing?
Following the internationally bestselling novel The Seven Sisters, this novel, "full of drama and romance" (Daily Mail), continues Lucinda Riley's spellbinding series inspired by the mythology surrounding the famous star constellation.
“"This is the second in a series about glamorous adopted sisters brought up in a castle on Lake Geneva. Their mysterious benefactor, Pa Salt, has died unexpectedly (or has he?) and left them clues about their origins… A great page-turner, full of drama and romance."”
Praise for THE GIRL ON THE CLIFF:
"Tautly paced yet picturesque, The Girl on the Cliff is a compelling and romantic novel of recovery, redemption, new opportunities, and lost love."-- "Booklist (Starred Review)"
"A bit of a ghost story, a little romance, some historical fiction, and plenty of family drama mix into one wonderful story... A sure bet for fans of Lauren Willig, Kate Morton, or Maeve Binchy."-- "Library Journal"
"A sweeping, poignant saga that will enthrall fans of The House at Riverton, Rebecca, and Downton Abbey."-- "Shelf Awareness"
"Riley has written another intricately plotted, compelling family saga, which presents historical and cultural attitudes of the time and place in which her characters live. Like the famous statue that brought the lovers together and hovers over Rio today, the story is elegantly sculpted and rich with history... the book will please fans of romance as well as historical fiction lovers."-- "Library Journal"
