This is one of my favourite books by Danielle Steele... Was actually getting bored of her writing style when I stumbled upon this one. 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............... Hillary, anak tertua, tetap tinggal dengan bibinya, dan mengalami kehidupan kelam. Tersiksa, nyaris mati karena dihajar pacar bibinya, diperkosa teman sekamarnya yang lesbian, namun berprestasi sangat baik di bidang akademik. Sangat membenci Arthur, dan menyalahkannya atas kematian ibunya. When a beautiful young Frenchwoman and a brilliant American actor meet in wartime Paris, their love begins like a fairy tale but ends in tragedy. Suddenly orphaned, their three children are cruelly separated. Megan, the baby, adopted by a family of comfortable means, becomes a doctor in the rural Appalachia. Alexandra, raised in lavish wealth, marries a powerful man whose pride is in his pedigree and who assumes that Alexandra is her parents' natural offspring. Neither of them has the remotest suspicion that she is adopted, or what turbulent tragedy lurks in her past. And Hilary, oldest of the Walker children, remembers them all, and the grief that tore them apart and cast them into separate lives. Feeling the loss throughout her life, and unable to find her sisters, she builds an extraordinary career and has no personal life.

As Sam Walker returned home from war with a beautiful wife, Solange, nobody not even they themselves could have ever foreseen what life held ahead for them. They had three beautiful daughters, Hillary, Alexandria and Megan. With a cruel twist of fate, the children suddenly find themselves orphaned and eventually get separated. The circumstances in which they had lost their parents was maddening enough, but life wasn’t done with them yet. They reunite after thirty years only to find there was more to their past life.
