La hermana sombra es el tercer libro de la serie basada en la mitolog�a griega y en la astrolog�a, Las Siete Hermanas, de la autora superventas mundial Lucinda Riley.

Siete hermanas, siete destinos, un padre con un pasado misterioso...

Star D'Apli�se se encuentra en una encrucijada tras la repentina muerte de su padre, el misterioso millonario Pa Salt. Ha dejado a cada una de sus seis hijas una pista sobre sus or�genes, pero Star, la m�s enigm�tica de todas, tiene serias dudas sobre la necesidad de aventurarse y perder la seguridad que la estrecha relaci�n con su hermana CeCe le brinda. A la desesperada decide seguir la pista, que la conduce a una librer�a de antiguo en Londres y al comienzo de un nuevo mundo para ella.

Hace cien a�os Flora MacNichol jura que nunca se casar�. Se siente feliz y segura en su casa en el Lake District cerca de Beatrix Potter, a quien idolatra. Pero se ve arrastrada contra su voluntad hasta Londres, a la casa de una de las personas m�s influyentes de la sociedad eduardiana: Alice Keppel, la amante m�s famosa de Eduardo VII, el hijo mayor de la reina Victoria.

Flora se debate entre el amor apasionado y la obligaci�n hacia su familia al mismo tiempo que se siente como un pe�n en juego ajeno, cuyas reglas solo conocen otros, hasta que el encuentro fortuito con un misterioso caballero le proporciona las respuestas que Flora ha estado esperando toda su vida.
