Meer over het boek

A novel of dramatic sweep and emotional force, this story follows a brilliant woman locked in a bitter contest for control of a legendary banking house with her treacherous father, while navigating her love for two men connected to her mysterious past. Raised in the lavish excess of her family's London estate, Deborah de Kronenegold seems to have it all—beauty, intelligence, and her grandfather's favor. However, her world is upended upon discovering her adoption and her father's malevolence. Following the deaths of her grandfather and mother, and the mysterious disappearance of her inheritance, Leslie orchestrates shocking events that lead to Deborah's expulsion. Determined to claim her birthright, she moves to New York to build a financial empire to rival her father's and seeks revenge. The narrative weaves in passionate love stories, including her first love Bash, whose heritage complicates their connection, and David, who offers wealth and security at a steep cost. Another love affair set in war-torn Italy reveals the secrets of Deborah's origins. Against the backdrop of international finance and opulent settings across London, Paris, New York, and Israel, the story captivates with unexpected twists leading to a surprising conclusion.
