Two timelines are followed by the characters and their families. The story comes to the United States as immigrants leave this totalitarian country
Their family life is affected and influenced by the new culture they have adopted. Jewels, romance and drive is the focus in this adventure that you can't put down. The quest for the answer to the Last Tiara is truly exciting.

Up Close and Personal - Daphne Du Maurier (12/28/2016)
De Rosnay has done incredible research regarding this biography. Her sense of detail regarding DuMaurier's intimate and personal life gives you an insight into why she writes as she does. The book is intriguing, familial, and a look at a woman who had to fight to pursue her dream. Her family and children are given a primary role in this biography. It is interesting and will keep your attention to the very end. It is truly enlightening and a pleasure to read.
