The highly anticipated fifth book in Lucinda Riley’s bestselling Seven Sisters series, The Moon Sister, is out from Pan Macmillan on 1 November 2018!

‘Being in nature made me feel alive, made my senses sharpen and soar, as if I was rising above the earth and becoming part of the universe. Here at Kinnaird, I knew that the inner part of me that I hid from the world could blossom and grow …’

Often called ‘a snowflake’ by her sisters, Tiggy feels more at ease caring for animals rather than in the company of humans. She withdraws to the isolation of the Kinnaird Estate in the Scottish Highlands to nurse her deer, wildcats, and other animals back to health. Although she studied to be a zoologist, she has a deep spirituality and a sixth sense that she has learned to hide from others.

When she meets Chilly, the ancient gypsy who lives on the estate, he sees her dark hair and brown doe-like eyes and recognises a fellow gitana – a Spanish gypsy – and tells her that it was foretold long ago that he would be the one to send her back home to Granada in Spain … Tiggy is told the story of her ancestor Lucía Albaicín, the greatest flamenco dancer of her generation, and she slowly gathers the confidence to embrace her sixth sense and her talent for healing.

The Moon Sister follows The Seven Sisters, The Storm Sister, The Shadow Sister and The Pearl Sister.

Find out more about the book:

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 gipsy 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 new-found family or return to Kinnaird, and Charlie …
