In this striking and suspenseful story of love, mothers, and memory, Starling Darling is Lucia’s journey to reclaim what’s hers and let go of what’s not. Can she find a way toward an unwritten future by forgiving her mother without abandoning herself?
Lucia Starling gets a phone call that changes her life: Her mother has died, and in the wake of it is an inheritance of an 18th century necklace, and memories of a mother she hasn’t spoken with in five years.
Neither of which she knows what to do with, except, perhaps to escape New York and leave the country. Far from home at least, she won’t have to face her father’s sorrow, or her own guilt.
When her mother’s necklace is robbed from her hotel room in Italy, Lucia suspects the culprit to be a mysterious foreigner and discovers his identity.
Leaving Rome means Lucia must face her past and her future; return to New York City, or take back the necklace before it’s sold on the black market and lost forever?
One thing is for certain: the stolen necklace is only the beginning.
Note: The paperback edition includes a Rome Travel Guide, Book Club Guide, and QR code to download the bonus chapter.
