Publisher's summary

After the death of her father - Pa Salt, an elusive billionaire who adopted his six daughters from around the globe - Tiggy D’Aplièse, trusting her instincts, moves to the remote wilds of Scotland. There she takes a job doing what she loves: caring for animals on the vast and isolated Kinnaird estate, employed by the enigmatic and troubled Laird, Charlie Kinnaird.

Her decision alters her future irrevocably when Chilly, an ancient gypsy who has lived for years on the estate, tells her that not only does she possess a sixth sense, passed down from her ancestors, but it was foretold long ago that he would be the one to send her back home to Granada in Spain.

In the shadow of the magnificent Alhambra, Tiggy discovers her connection to the fabled gypsy community of Sacromonte, who were forced to flee their homes during the civil war, and to ‘La Candela’, the greatest flamenco dancer of her generation. From the Scottish Highlands and Spain to South America and New York, Tiggy follows the trail back to her own exotic but complex past. And under the watchful eye of a gifted gypsy bruja, she begins to embrace her own talent for healing.

But when fate takes a hand, Tiggy must decide whether to stay with her newfound family or return to Kinnaird and Charlie....

boring - struggled to finish

so far probably the most slow moving book out od the series. Almost no suspense and almost no love story.

great book series

The Seven Sisters series is really well thought out & researched. I love how the author intertwines history with fiction. I feel in love with the characters & i can't wait for the next one!!

terrific

Best in series yet, best reader in audio book, just terrific excellent storyline and characters.

Again, I could immerse myself in new worlds

I am a fan of the entire series of books about the D'Aplièse sisters and The Moon Sister was as enjoyable to listen to as the others. Another sister and another world, a place to explore and see. Just like the stories of her ancestors. The author surprises us with something new every time. Overall I am satisfied, although the beginning was not very exciting. In this part of the saga, the action developed a bit lazily. The narrator has a nice slightly hoarse voice, which was a nice change, but she read the role of one of the characters with such a strong accent that I had a hard time understanding the words (English is not my first language), which happened to me for the first time when listening to Audible books. But overall I am satisfied.

Never want them to end

I’m always sad when each book ends but I know the next one will be just as good!

Consistently blown away

I already wish the next book was out!! the narrator did a wonderful job...a little nasally but still great.

My favorite so far

Great narration. Intriguing story! My favorite so far!! I wish she used this narrator for all her books

This is a Great Series

I was waiting for Book 5 to come out, I have loved this series by Lucinda Riley and have read every book she has written. I love the weaving of the past and the present through her story and the exotic places this series has gone to has been so informative and interesting. I gave the story a 4 only because it was not as riveting as the prior 4 books, but it was still darn good.

Please find actors who can do the accents properly

If a story takes place in Spain, why not find an actress who can do a proper Spanish dialect? The story was wonderful and although Imogen Wilde did a great job with the Tiggy parts, I wish they had found a Spanish actress for the rest of the story. I immensely enjoyed everything else about the book, but that took me out of the story.

Another great one

Love how the story developed .
Can't wait to see how the unanswered questions are still a mystery.
