Description

'You don't read this book, you live it' Erin Kelly

If
Stella Fortuna means 'lucky star,' then life must have a funny sense of
humour.


Everybody
in the Fortuna family knows the story of how
the beautiful, fiercely independent Stella, who refused to learn to cook and who swore she would never marry, has
escaped death time and time again.

From her
childhood in Italy, to her adulthood in America, death has seemed to pursue
Stella. She has been burned, eviscerated and bludgeoned; she has choked,
nearly fallen out of a window, and on one occasion, her life was only saved
by a typo.

However,
even the best-known stories still have secrets to reveal . . . and even after
a century, Stella's is no exception.

No woman
survives seven or eight deaths without a reason. So, how did she? In a tale
which spans nine decades, two continents, and one family's darkest,
deepest-buried truths, the answer awaits. . .
