The Heiresses

The Heiresses A Novel

Sara Shepard2014
You know the Saybrooks. Everyone does. Perhaps you've read a profile of them in People or have seen their pictures in the society pages of Vogue. Perhaps while walking along that choice block on Fifth Avenue, you've been tempted to enter the ornate limestone building with their family name etched into the pediment above the door. The only thing more flawless than a Saybrook's diamond solitaire is the family behind the jewelry empire. Beauties, entrepreneurs, debutantes, and style mavens, they are the epitome of New York City's high society. But being a Saybrook comes at a price—they are heirs not only to a dizzying fortune but also to a decades-old family curse. Tragedy strikes the prominent family yet again when thirty-four-year-old Poppy, the most exquisite Saybrook of them all, flings herself from the window of her TriBeCa office. Everyone is shocked that a woman who had it all would end her own life. Then her cousins receive an ominous threat: one heiress down, four to go. Was it suicide . . . or murder? In the aftermath of the tragedy, the remaining heiresses—Corinne, the perfectionist; Rowan, the workaholic; Aster, the hedonist; and Natasha, the enigma—wrestle with feelings of sadness, guilt, and, most of all, fear. Now they must uncover the truth about their family before they lose the only thing money can't buy: their lives. The Heiresses is a whip-smart mystery that simmers with the wicked sense of humor and intrigue that made Sara Shepard's number one New York Times bestselling Pretty Little Liars series a must-read, must-watch phenomenon.

No puedo resistirme con estos libros, los inhalo cual cocaína Original de: El Blog del Gato - El Extraño Gato del Cuento Me encanta Sara Shepard, sus libros no serán la maravilla, pero cada vez que empiezo uno de sus libros los devoró. Esta vez trae los misterios de una bella familia multimillonaria, The Heiresses tiene todo eso que amas de un libro de esta autora, una cantidad infinita de personajes, giros de trama telenovelesco y, mucho, mucho drama. Un placer siniestro mío es ver los desastres de los millonarios en E! y leerlo ahora, para mí fue el epítome de mi chismosería. Si ya has leído a Sara Shepard antes y te gusta, amarás este libro, que supuestamente es una serie, pero hasta no dicen nada de cuándo la continuación que la NECESITO, ya saben cómo es esta escritora, cliffhangers siempre.

Has all the marks of a Sara Shepard book- but in a more adult format. The story was fun and the plot was a little less predictable than some of the pll books. No twins, but still murder mysteries. I really enjoyed it. Think it would make a great movie of another show.
