Set in the icy beauty of Norway, The Storm Sister is the second book in Lucinda Riley's spellbinding Seven Sisters series, inspired by the mythology surrounding the famous star constellation.
Ally D'Apliese is about to compete in one of the world's most perilous yacht races, when she hears the news of her adoptive father's sudden, mysterious death. Rushing back to meet her five sisters at their family home, she discovers that her father - an elusive billionaire affectionately known to his daughters as Pa Salt - has left each of them a tantalizing clue to their true heritage.
Ally is in the midst of a passionate love affair, one that will change her life forever. But when her world is turned upside down once more, she decides to leave the open seas and follow the trail left by her father, which leads to the icy beauty of Norway.
There, Ally begins to discover her roots - and how her story is inextricably bound to that of a talented young singer, Anna Landvik, who lived there over a hundred years before. As Ally learns more about Anna, she also begins to question who her father, Pa Salt, really was . . .
The multi-million bestselling series continues with The Shadow Sister.

Schweitzer Klassifikation
Lucinda Riley was born in Ireland and, after an early career as an actress in film, theatre and television, wrote her first novel aged twenty-four. Her books have been translated into thirty-seven languages and The Seven Sisters series specifically has become a global phenomenon, creating its own genre.
In 2020, Lucinda received the Dutch Platinum Award for sales of over 300,000 copies for a single novel in one year - an award last won by J. K. Rowling for Harry Potter. In collaboration with her son Harry Whittaker, she also devised and wrote the Guardian Angels series of books for children.
Though she brought up her four children mostly in Norfolk, England, she fulfilled her dream in 2015 of buying a remote farmhouse in West Cork, Ireland, which she always felt was her spiritual home, and this was where her last five books were written.
Lucinda was diagnosed with cancer in 2017 and died on 11 June 2021, surrounded by her family.
