Publisher's Summary

Journey to the dusty plains of Central Australia in The Pearl Sister, the fourth book in the number one bestselling Seven Sisters series by Lucinda Riley. A spellbinding story of love and loss, inspired by the mythology of the famous star constellation.

CeCe D’Aplièse, in her mid-twenties, has never felt she fitted in anywhere. Following the death of her father, the elusive billionaire Pa Salt – so-called by the six daughters he adopted from around the globe – she finds herself at breaking point. Dropping out of art college, CeCe watches as Star, her beloved sister, distances herself to follow her new love, leaving her completely alone.

In desperation, CeCe decides to flee England and discover her past; the only clues she has are a black-and-white photograph and the name of a woman pioneer who lived in Australia over one hundred years ago. En-route to Sydney, CeCe heads to the one place she has ever felt close to being herself: the stunning beaches of Krabi, Thailand. There amongst the backpackers, she meets the mysterious Ace, a man as lonely as she is and whom she realizes has a secret to hide...

A hundred years earlier Kitty McBride, daughter of an Edinburgh clergyman, is given the opportunity to travel to Australia as the companion of the wealthy Mrs McCrombie. In Adelaide, her fate becomes entwined with Mrs McCrombie’s family, including the identical, yet very different, twin brothers: impetuous Drummond, and ambitious Andrew, the heir to a pearling fortune.

When CeCe finally reaches the searing heat of the Red Centre of Australia, she begins the search for her past. As something deep within her responds to the energy of the area and the ancient culture of the Aboriginal people, her creativity reawakens once more. With help from those she meets on her journey, CeCe begins to believe that this wild, vast continent could offer her something she never thought possible: a sense of belonging, and a home...

The epic multi-million-selling series continues with The Moon Sister.

What the critics say

'The Pearl Sister is absolutely wonderful... Lucinda enthralls and mesmerizes as she weaves the modern and the historical settings together so finely there's not a crack to be found in either the plot or the pacing.' (Random Things Through My Letterbox)

Least fav story of series

I like how this shares more depth into Cece’s character but I didn’t love the storylines—past or present. I find this the weakest book tbh.

Beautiful!

I am loving the whole 7 Sisters series, but I think I am starting to have favorites. The Pearl sister may be my favorite so far! It is hard to choose because they are so beautifully written and each story is unique, but this one is fabulous. I love the stories behind it, the life of the Aboriginal peoples in Australia and the history of the pearl industry in that continent are amazing. I never knew that so many cultures were part of Australia's history.

I love CeCe! She is definitely misunderstood by the sisters; she is truly a warm and loving person.

The narrator does a great job, at least in my opinion. I enjoyed the life she puts into each character, especially into Crissy.
Next sister...

My favorite so far

I'll be honest, the way Cece was portrayed by the other sisters in their stories, I was not looking forward to this book. I thought it was going to be dry and boring. I WAS WRONG. This is my favorite story so far! I couldn't stop listening.
