Publisher Description
Spanning a lifetime of love and loss, crossing borders and oceans, Atlas: The Story of Pa Salt draws the Seven Sisters series to its stunning, unforgettable conclusion.
1928, Paris
A boy is found, moments from death, and taken in by a kindly family. Gentle, precocious, talented, he flourishes in his new home, and the family show him a life he hadn't dreamed possible. But he refuses to speak a word, or reveal a single detail about who he is.
As he grows into a young man, falling in love and taking classes at the prestigious Conservatoire de Paris, he can almost forget the terrors of his past, or the promise he has made. But in 1930s Europe, an evil is rising across the continent and no one's safety is certain. In his heart, he knows the time will come where he must flee once more.
2008, the Aegean
All the seven sisters are gathered for the first time, on board the Titan to say a final goodbye to the enigmatic father they loved so dearly.
To the surprise of everyone, it is the missing sister who Pa Salt has chosen to entrust with the clue to their pasts. But for every truth revealed, another question emerges. The sisters must confront the idea that their adored father was someone they barely knew. And, even more shockingly, that the secrets of his past may still have consequences for them today.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Lucinda Riley’s The Seven Sisters series achieves a satisfying sense of closure with this epic final instalment, penned by the late author and her son, Harry Whittaker. Atlas: The Story of Pa Salt finally shines a spotlight on the titular patriarch, who only appeared on the periphery of previous books. Like other entries in the series, this combines elements of adventure and subtle fairy-tale qualities with a strong focus on family and legacy. Pa Salt’s storied life takes him to Ireland, France, Siberia, England and beyond—including time at sea—but the book balances its more fanciful turns with a warm, level-headed tone. Readers won’t want to farewell this character or series, but it’s heartening to know that the other novels are there for the re-reading.

Great finale
Amazing
Epic Series
Sad to have ended the Seven Sisters, but what an incredible ending.
Tired up all the ends
Loved this book. Well done to son and mum, you got it right. All the ends were tired up, the story was excellent and a real tear jerker until the end. Thankyou for this wonderful end to a glorious series of books.
