    • Santa Montefiore, la reina del romance épico, une de manera magistral la convulsa historia de Irlanda a lo largo de varios siglos con una trama familiar y romántica que atrapa desde las primeras páginas. • El tono recuerda mucho a la serie Downton Abby (tramas románticas, conflicto entre irlandeses e ingleses, y cómo afecta la Primera Guerra Mundial a la caída del tipo de vida de la aristocracia ). Otros referentes podrían ser Diana Gabaldon o Florencia Bonelli. • Primera entrega de la trilogía: Crónicas de los Deverill. El curso de sus vidas estaba trazado de antemano, pero el amor y la guerra lo cambiarían todo. El castillo de Deverill, enclavado en las sinuosas colinas de Irlanda, es el hogar de tres mujeres muy distintas: la pelirroja Kitty Deverill, su mejor amiga e hija de la cocinera del castillo, Bridie Doyle, y su extravagante prima inglesa, Celia Deverill. Al estallar la guerra, sus vidas cambian para siempre. Separadas por la traición, reducido su mundo a cenizas y arrastradas a lugares muy distintos del globo, su amistad parece condenada al olvido. Pero las tres tienen una cosa en común: una añoranza constante y apasionada por el castillo de Deverill y por todos los recuerdos que contiene.
