Lucinda Riley Book order (chronological)

Jedno tajemství způsobilo století zármutku… Při procházce podél větrem ošlehaných útesů Irska se sochařka Grania Ryanová setkává s malou Aurorou. V tu chvíli netuší, že setkání s dívkou významně ovlivní její život a pomůže jí odhalit mnohá tajemství minulosti. Od hořkosladké romance ve válečném Londýně až po problematický vztah v současném New Yorku, jsou obě rodiny, minulé i současné, propleteny po celé století. Dívka na útesu je skutečně strhující román o lásce a naději, vině a odpuštění.

Všetko sa začalo láskou. A skončilo sa tichom. Sorcha O’Donovanová vyrastá v ospalej dedinke na divokom írskom západe a túži po živote plnom vášne, hudby a dobrodružstva. Keď stretne charizmatického hudobníka a vydedenca Cona Dalyho, jej život sa konečne zmení. Utečie s ním do Londýna, kde ich čaká život, o akom obaja vždy snívali – sláva, koncerty, úspech. Ich životy sa však zmenia na nepoznanie, keď sa prejaví temná stránka slávy. Conova rocková kapela The Fishermen prerazí na svetové pódiá, no život pod žiarou reflektorov má svoju cenu. Smrteľné vyhrážky, utajená pravda a minulosť, ktorá si pýta svoju daň. Až Con jedného dňa zmizne. Bez stopy. O dve desaťročia neskôr sa kapela rozhodne opäť vystúpiť – na najväčšom charitatívnom koncerte na svete. Ak sa však Con Daly objaví skôr, ako vyjdú najavo fakty, história sa môže zopakovať s ešte tragickejšími následkami. Silný príbeh o láske, strate a druhých šanciach – Posledná ľúbostná pieseň je znovuoživený raný román milovanej autorky Lucindy Rileyovej, ktorý s úctou a láskou prepracoval jej syn Harry Whittaker, spoluautor bestsellera Atlas.

En 1995 à Londres, la mort de Sir James Harrison, un acteur britannique légendaire de 95 ans, laisse sa famille en émoi et révèle un secret potentiellement dévastateur pour la royauté : un enfant caché qui pourrait bouleverser l'ordre de succession. Joanna Haslam, une jeune journaliste ambitieuse, est chargée de couvrir ses funérailles, où la jet-set mondiale est présente. Cependant, derrière le glamour, Joanna pressent une ombre inquiétante. Son intuition se renforce lorsqu'elle découvre l'existence d'une lettre laissée par Harrison, convoitée depuis 70 ans. En enquêtant sur ce mystère, elle se rend compte qu'elle est désormais la cible de forces obscures prêtes à tout pour protéger ce secret. Ce roman captivant, rempli de secrets, de mensonges et de rebondissements, témoigne du talent de Lucinda Riley. Née en Irlande, elle a commencé à écrire à 24 ans et ses œuvres ont été largement reconnues, figurant parmi les best-sellers dans plusieurs pays européens et traduites en 28 langues. Ses livres, dont Maia et La Sœur de la tempête, se sont vendus à plus de 150 000 exemplaires aux éditions Charleston.

O několik let později vezme svět modelingu útokem, cestuje z Milána do Londýna a New Yorku a žije život v klíně luxusu. Její minulost ji však sleduje jako temný stín, tajemně propletený s tragickým příběhem dvou mladých sourozenců v Polsku za druhé světové války.

Tajemná dívka je bez nadsázky strhující román. Autorka na něm začala pracovat již v mládí, ale konečnou podobu mu dal její syn Harry Whittaker. Lucinda Riley se bohužel posledního vydání nedočkala.

But the local police cannot rule out foul play and the case prompts the return of high-flying Detective Inspector Jazmine 'Jazz' Hunter to the force. Jazz has her own private reasons for stepping away from her police career in London, and reluctantly agrees to front the investigation as a favour to her old boss. Reunited with her loyal sergeant Alastair Miles, she enters the closed world of the school, and as Jazz begins to probe the circumstances surrounding Charlie Cavendish's tragic death, events are soon to take another troubling turn. Charlie is exposed as an arrogant bully, and those around him had both motive and opportunity to switch the drugs he took daily to control his epilepsy. As staff at the school close ranks, the disappearance of young pupil Rory Millar and the death of an elderly classics master provide Jazz with important leads, but are destined to complicate the investigation further. As snow covers the landscape and another suspect goes missing, Jazz must also confront her personal demons . . . Then, a particularly grim discovery at the school makes this the most challenging murder investigation of her career. Because Fleat House hides secrets darker than even Jazz could ever have imagined . . .

Wonderful! Absolutely impossible to put down! The Seven Sisters books just keep getting better and better Tracy Rees, author of Amy Snow

The first book in a major new series from the #1 internationally bestselling author Lucinda Riley. 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, who adopted them all as babies, has died. Each of them is handed a tantalizing clue to her true heritage--a clue which takes Maia across the world to a crumbling mansion in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Once there, she begins to put together the pieces of her story and its beginnings. Eighty years earlier in Rio's Belle Epoque of the 1920s, Izabela Bonifacio's father has aspirations for his daughter to marry into the aristocracy. Meanwhile, architect Heitor da Silva Costa is devising plans for an enormous 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. There, at Paul Landowski's studio and in the heady, vibrant cafes of Montparnasse, she meets ambitious young sculptor Laurent Brouilly, and knows at once that her life will never be the same again. In this sweeping, epic tale of love and loss--the first in a unique, spellbinding series of seven novels--Lucinda Riley showcases her storytelling talent like never before.

Following on from The Seven Sisters, this is the second book in a spellbinding series of novels based loosely on the mythology surrounding the famous constellation. Each one follows the story of one sister, and each book opens at a beautiful chateau on the shores of Lake Geneva. The sisters gather together when they are told that their beloved father, an elusive billionaire they knew as Pa Salt, has died. He adopted them from across the globe, and now they are each left with an envelope, which holds a clue to their past, and a set of coordinates engraved on an armillary sphere, showing where their father found them. The Second Sister tells Ally's story. A talent sailor, Ally is competing in one of the world's deadliest races when tragedy strikes. This leads her to leave her life on the beautiful Mediterranean waters and follow the clue her father left her to a museum in Norway, where she begins to discover her past - and the story of a young woman, Anna, who lived there over 100 years before - and her links to the composer Edvard Grieg and his famous music to accompany Peer Gynt.
