Una vieja mansión indiana construida sobre las rocas.
Una familia. Un terrible secreto.
1920. Mairi vive con su padre en el faro de una pequeña aldea situada en la costa atlántica. Allí disfruta de una infancia solitaria, con la naturaleza y el océano como únicos compañeros de juegos. Todos la conocen como "la hija de la sirena". Su madre fue un misterio. Una leyenda sobre la que hacer conjeturas al calor de la lareira en las largas noches de invierno. Sin embargo, la superstición y el recelo de los aldeanos propician el rechazo con el que Mairi ha convivido desde la extraña desaparición de su madre durante una tormenta. La construcción de una enigmática casa de estilo indiano sobre las rocas y la llegada al pueblo de la distinguida familia Andrade Puig i Serra transformará por completo el mundo de la niña. Junto a Julia y Alfonso descubrirá el significado de la verdadera amistad, pero una traición marcará el destino de sus vidas para siempre.
2007. Clara regresa a Galicia en plena crisis existencial dispuesta a encontrarse a sí misma y a indagar sobre la historia de la mansión indiana que la obsesiona desde su infancia, así como la decadencia de la familia que la habitó. En ella, la joven sensible e introvertida consigue trabajo como asistente de Hilda Silva, una anciana escritora que parece esconder muchos secretos. Clara emprenderá un viaje al pasado en busca de la verdad que se oculta en las palabras silenciadas y que le permitirá reconstruir sus raíces y liberar viejos fantasmas.
Lucía Lago debuta en ficción con una novela con ecos de Kate Morton, Daphne du Maurier o Charlotte Brontë y el toque mágico del folclore gallego. Misterio, leyendas, romanticismo y amistad vertebran El faro de la sirena, una hermosa historia escrita con la delicadeza de los atardeceres y la ferocidad contenida de las tormentas y que, como el canto de las sirenas, conseguirá hechizarte desde la primera página.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A lighthouse and a mysterious mermaid.
A centuries-old seaside mansion built with wealth from the Indies.
A family. A terrible secret.
1920. Mairi lives with her father in a village lighthouse on the Atlantic coast. Known as "the mermaid's daughter," she is solitary child, with the ocean and nature as her only playmates. Her mother was lost in a storm, and the mystery of her disappearance is fuel for conjecture around local hearths on long winter nights. Mairi and her father are shunned by the superstitious villagers until the arrival of the prominent Andrade Puig i Serra family, who build an enigmatic colonial-style house on the rocky shore. Mairi's life is transformed as, with Julia and Alfonso, she discovers the meaning of true friendship. All too soon, however, a betrayal will alter their destinies forever.
2007. Clara returns to Galicia in the middle of an existential crisis, determined to find herself and learn more about the history of the ornate mansion that has obsessed her since childhood, as well as the family that lived in it. A sensitive and introverted young woman, she is hired as the assistant to Hilda Silva, an elderly writer and the guardian of many secrets. Clara embarks on a journey to the past in search of the truth behind the village's silence, hoping to discover her roots and banish old ghosts.
Lucía Lago's first novel has echoes of Kate Morton, Daphne du Maurier and Charlotte Brontë, with the magical elements from Galician folklore. Mystery, legend, romanticism and friendship form the backbone of The Mermaid's Lighthouse. A beautiful tale crafted with the brushstrokes of a seaside sunset and the ferocity of an ocean storm, it captivates the reader with its siren's song.
