About this listen
Unidos por el azar, Jane y Phillip investigan una misteriosa herencia que desafía el paso del tiempo.
Una nueva novela de Danielle Steel, la reina de la narrativa femenina.
En una caja de seguridad abandonada en un banco de Nueva York aparece un fajo de cartas manuscritas, fotografías, pasaportes caducados y veintidós joyas de valor incalculable. Jane Willoughby, empleada judicial, recibe el encargo de encontrar a los posibles herederos y Phillip Lawton, experto de la casa de subasta Christie's, el de tasar las piezas.
Atraída por el hallazgo, Jane averigua el nombre de la enigmática mujer que aparece en las fotografías, Marguerite Wallace Pearson, y decide indagar en la lujosa vida que tuvo junto al atractivo hombre aristocrático con el que se casó.
Como si de un rompecabezas se tratara, Jane recompone con la ayuda de Phillip las piezas del pasado de Marguerite y descubre que, en tiempos de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, la joven abandonó Estados Unidos y se instaló en Europa. La investigación para desvelar el misterio no solo los llevará a lugares insospechados, sino que transformará sus vidas para siempre.

"Hay dos sensaciones que siempre se recuerdan a lo largo de la vida: la primera vez que la persona amada sostiene tu mano y la primera vez en que un bebé recién nacido te toma de un dedo. En esos precisos momentos quedas unido al otro por el resto de la eternidad". En la Praga de los años treinta, los sueños de Josef y Lenka se hacen añicos ante la inminente invasión nazi. Décadas más tarde, a miles de kilómetros de distancia, en Nueva York, dos extraños se reconocen a través de una mirada. El destino les otorga a los amantes una nueva oportunidad.

Una tarde, cuando pasea sola por la pradera, Claire se acerca a un círculo de piedras antiquísimas y cae de pronto en un extraño trance. Al volver en sí se encuentra con un panorama desconcertante: el mundo moderno ha desaparecido, ahora la rodea la Escocia de 1734, con sus clanes beligerantes y supersticiosos, hombres y mujeres rudos, a veces violentos, pero con una capacidad de vivir y de amar como Claire jamás había experimentado en su anterior vida.

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

Story
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Story
My fiancé brought me tea and scrambled eggs in bed that morning, and we snuggled together, talking about buying our rings, and about our perfect wedding next year. Then we headed into town. He held my hand and gazed at the ring I liked best, a smile spreading slowly over his face. Then a glass of bubbly to celebrate. I felt flushed, excited and ready for the rest of my life with the man I loved. We race to get on the train home. It screams to a halt and I run towards its open doors. Made it. I think he’s right behind me — but when I turn around, he’s gone.

Story
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.
