Zvijezde u sjeni

Zvijezde u sjeni

Hilary Norman

A modern saga about the Tuscan Casaretti family, which is blown around the world by a tragic fire. The survivors carry in their hearts the destinies of those who are no longer there.

Franceska experiences the shock of coming to America, which threatened to leave her on the street, until good fortune helped her to get back on her feet and go in search of her brother and sister.

After a long recovery, the forgotten Giulietta becomes Juliet, comes from her homeland to London and seeks a professional career - with exaggerated blows that she did not expect: from the heart, from betrayed love.

Luciano grows up on the French Riviera, devoting himself carelessly to his writing inclinations, but is haunted by a mysterious connection with his missing sister.

Powerful, dark and passionate, this is the tense history of a divided family governed by the indomitable forces of love and blood.
