Fiction
For fans of Colleen McCullough, Kate Morton, and Lucinda
Riley, a powerful saga of family, love, honor, and betrayal
set in historical Barcelona and romantic Paris, from the
author of Tuscan Rose. “You who judge me: come! Let me tell you a story…” Paloma
Batton is the granddaughter of Spanish refugees who fled
Barcelona after the Civil War. A disciplined student
attending the school of the Paris Opera Ballet, Paloma lets
little get in the way of her career until she receives a
mysterious pair of golden earrings. She begins exploring her
Spanish heritage and becomes fascinated by la Rusa, a woman
who rose from poverty to become one of the great flamenco
dancers of modern times before committing suicide. As Paloma
begins to unravel the secrets of the past, she discovers
more than one person who had good reason for wanting la Rusa
dead—including Paloma’s own grandmother. Written with the same depth and emotion as Belinda
Alexandra’s “rich, unforgettable saga” (Kimberly Freeman,
author of Wildflower Hill) Tuscan Rose, Golden Earrings
moves between two of the great cities of Europe: Barcelona
in the lead-up to the Civil War and Paris in the 1970s. It
is the story of two women and the extremes to which they are
willing to go for love. And above all, it is a story of
great passions—and great betrayals—where nothing is quite as
it seems.
