About the Book

Una fascinante historia de dos hermanas y los peligros y seducciones del exceso en una vida de lujo en el Nueva York de finales del siglo XIX.

En Gilded Age, Nueva York, el dinero lo compra todo. ¿Cuál es tu precio?

A veces los lazos que unen son los más peligrosos de todos...

París, 1899. Emma Lacasse ha estado separada de su hermana mayor durante casi veinte años, ya que Caroline se casó con un estadounidense rico y se fue de Francia. Así que cuando Emma recibe la petición de Caroline de encontrarse con ella, esto la intriga. Caroline invita a Emma a visitarla en Nueva York con una condición: Emma debe dar clases particulares a su tímida sobrina, Isadora, y ayudarla a prepararse para su debut en sociedad.

Caroline vive una vida de excesos y opulencias inimaginables como todas las millonarias de la era dorada de Nueva York, y Emma pronto se verá inmersa en un mundo de lujo más allá de sus sueños más salvajes, muy alejado de su estilo de vida bohemio como arpista y escritora con su amante, Claude, en Montmartre.

Emma espera que el encuentro con su única familia sea emotivo, pero en lugar de eso, se encuentra con los vicios de su hermana carismática y manipuladora, que se deleita con las maquinaciones de los ultra ricos. Cuando Emma comienza a cuestionar los verdaderos motivos de su hermana, se desata un desastre y la sociedad de Nueva York queda al descubierto: debajo del reluciente exterior hay un nido de engaño, traición, corrupción moral... y tal vez incluso de asesinato.

«Una mezcla de Las amistades peligrosas y La Cenicienta. Es una lectura tremendamente entretenida y absorbente que no podrás parar de leer.» Better Reading

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

In Gilded Age New York, money buys everything. What is your price? From the best-selling author of Tuscan Rose comes a mesmerising tale of two sisters and the dangers and seductions of excess.

Sometimes the ties that bind are the most dangerous of all....

Paris, 1899. Emma Lacasse has been estranged from her older sister for nearly 20 years, since Caroline married a wealthy American and left France. So when Emma receives a request from Caroline to meet her, she is intrigued. Caroline invites Emma to visit her in New York, on one condition: Emma must tutor her shy, young niece, Isadora, and help her prepare for her society debut.

Caroline lives a life of unimaginable excess and opulence as one of New York's Gilded Age millionaires, and Emma is soon immersed in a world of luxury beyond her wildest dreams - a far cry from her bohemian lifestyle as a harpist and writer with her lover, Claude, in Montmartre.
Emma hopes for an emotional reunion with her only family, but instead she finds herself in the viselike grip of her charismatic and manipulative sister, who revels in the machinations of the ultrarich. As Emma begins to question her sister's true motives, a disaster strikes, and New York society is stripped bare - beneath the glittering exterior lies a seething nest of deceit, betrayal, moral corruption...and perhaps even murder.
