A richly drawn and absorbing novel of passion and power,
love and redemption that will captivate fans of Victoria
Hislop, Tracy Chevalier and Kate Furnivall. Two women, centuries apart, bound together by the secrets
of one of the most iconic buildings ever created. Pisa, 1999:Sam Campbell sits by her husband’s hospital
bed. Far from home and her children, she must care for
Michael who is recovering from a stroke. A man she loves
deeply. A man who has been unfaithful to her. Alone and in need of distraction, Sam decides to pick up
Michael’s research into the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
Immersing herself in the ancient city, she begins to piece
together the mystery behind the creation of the tower, and
discovers the woman that history forgot… Pisa, 1171:Berta di Bernardo, the wife of a rich merchant,
sits in her chamber, dressing for a dinner party. A
gathering that will change the course of her life and that
of a young master mason, Gerardo, forever. A strong, intelligent woman, Berta’s passion for
architecture draws her to Gerardo. As she embarks on a
love affair, her maid Aurelia also becomes spellbound by
the same man. Yet for Berta, her heart’s desire is to see
the Tower built, and her determination knows no bounds…
