The Light Behind the Window

by Lucinda Riley

The Light Behind the Window
The Light Behind the Window

Family secrets, lost love, sunlit Provence

This is the kind of historical family drama that sweeps you into a beautiful château while slowly unravelling generations of buried emotion. If you love stories where the past presses closely against the present, Emilie’s journey feels both romantic and quietly heartbreaking. Readers who enjoy Lucinda Riley usually adore how she blends glamour, mystery, and emotional healing into something deeply immersive.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

For years, Emilie de la Martinières struggled to build an existence beyond her aristocratic background. But when her glamorous, aloof mother Valérie dies, the family legacy falls solely on Emilie's shoulders. She returns to the place of her childhood, a stately château in Provence. Chance leads her to a collection of poems written by her aunt Sophia, whose life was shadowed by a dark secret—a tragic love story that would forever determine the fate of the de la Martinières. Emilie realizes that it’s not too late to open the door to a different future.
