Product Information

Pernikahan dan karir Sam yg melesat membuat suasana jadi cerah, untuk tahu-tahu dibuat "jatuh" dengan peristiwa tak terduga......Pembunuhan. Solange dibunuh Sam, di depan anak-anaknya............... The ‘discovery’ they make on their trip seemed convenient as it gives their romance more legitimacy (that morgan had hidden stuff from them). A dazzling and heartfelt novel about two sisters caught in their parents' ambition, the accident that brings it all crashing down, and the journey that follows. When a catastrophic event dismantles the Brightons’ world, Riley must stand in the spotlight for the first time in her life, with questions about her family that challenge her memory, identity, and loyalty. Restless and heartbroken, she sets off across the globe with the person she least expects, to seek truths about those she thought she knew best—herself included. They are later reunited by an estranged, family friend: the lawyer who placed them in the homes where they spent their childhoods.

With just the turn of a kaleidoscope, your vision on life can shift, whether it be for the better or for the worse. I would recommend Danielle Steel's story; Kaleidoscope. Not only because it's full of love, tragedy, and determination showing how easy it is for life to change in an instant, but because conveys the idea that with enough persistence, you can make your way through any situation, and that's what I love about it. The author has a way with words. Her descriptions and the character's musings are written delectably, lush, beautifully, overdramatically, and pretentiously. The characters each seem to have some sort of mild to severe psychosis. Di awal sudah disuguhkan suasana muram ala perang. Obrolan antar prajurit di dalam bunker saat Perang Dunia II, antara Sam Walker dan Arthur Patterson. Lalu disuguhkan adegan "manis" saat prajurit Sam Walker jatuh cinta terhadap wanita Perancis, Solange, yang digambarkan sang mempesona dengan rambut merah menyalanya. Lalu muram kembali saat Sam harus maju bertempur lagi. Cerah sesaat ketika perang usai untuk kembali muram saat Sam harus kembali ke Amerika dan terpaksa berpisah sementara dengan Solange.

Conan Doyle: Mystery and Adventure recreates the largely missing television series as never before. Drawing on the surviving scripts, production files, and the Hawkesworth archive, it provides an in-depth appreciation of a lost moment in television history, filling gaps in the story of Hawkesworth’s stellar career and the tale of Conan Doyle on screen.

She wonderfully tells the story of 3 sisters who are separated due to unfortunate events and misgivings. The only qualm I had was that it would have been even more amazing had the story of Sam Walker ans Solange not stretched so long.
