Overview
Danielle Steel vuelve a emocionar a sus lectoras con una historia inspiradora sobre los vínculos eternos de una familia inolvidable.
Preston y Constance Whittier han forjado juntos una vida feliz y han criado a seis hijos en su hermosa mansión en Manhattan. Ahora, con el nido casi vacío, es más fácil que nunca para ellos mantener su tradicional «luna de miel invernal», un romántico viaje de esquí en pareja.
Pero con el viaje de este año llega la tragedia y, de repente, los hijos de los Whittier se encuentran reunidos en la casa familiar sin sus padres por primera vez en su vida. El mayor, Lyle, atraviesa un momento crítico en su matrimonio y debe decidir si un divorcio sería lo mejor para él y sus dos hijos. El exigente trabajo de Gloria en Wall Street no le ha dejado tiempo para encontrar pareja, y a los treinta y nueve años se siente sola. Los gemelos, Caroline y Charlie, comparten apartamento y un negocio en el mundo de la moda que no pasa por su mejor momento. Benjie, con necesitades especiales, y Annabelle, que sigue en la universidad y parece estar perdiendo el control de su vida, son los únicos que todavía viven en la casa familiar.
Los cuatro hermanos mayores se ven obligados a dejar de lado sus problemas personales y su dolor para mantener unida a la familia y apoyarse mutuamente. Vender la casa sería otra pérdida devastadora. ¿Existirá alguna alternativa, por poco convencional que parezca?
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In this heartwarming novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Danielle Steel, adult siblings find their way back home—and back to each other—after loss.
Preston and Constance Whittier have built a happy life together, with a brood of six children raised in a beautiful historic Manhattan mansion. Now, with a nearly empty nest, it’s easier than ever for the Whittiers to maintain their tradition of a solo romantic “Wintermoon” ski trip.
But with this year’s trip comes tragedy, and suddenly the Whittiers’ adult children find themselves reuniting in the family home without their parents for the first time ever. The oldest, Lyle, is reaching a breaking point in his marriage and must decide whether a divorce would be best for him and his two children. Gloria’s big job on Wall Street has kept her single at thirty-nine and growing ever more cynical. The twins, Caroline and Charlie, moved out long ago to start a fashion business that may now be faltering. Benjie, with special needs, is hit hard by the loss of his parents and needs his siblings’ help. And Annabelle, the youngest, drops out of college and starts to spin out of control.
The eldest four are forced to put aside their personal issues and their grief to keep the family together and support each other and their two youngest siblings. Selling the house, along with all the memories that live in its walls, feels like yet another devastating loss. Could there be another way, as unconventional as it seems?
In The Whittiers, Danielle Steel delivers an inspiring story about the everlasting bonds of one unforgettable family.
