Uno de esos libros con heroínas bellas y rebeldes, malos muy malos y buenos muy buenos. Llevadero, pero no creo que lea los siguientes.

Two young English women embark on an adventure to New Zealand in the late 19th century to marry unknown men. Both surprised by their partners, who turn out to be bitter enemies. Yet the women find a way to stay in touch and we follow their lives, that of their children, as well as orphan girls sent on the same boat to work in this strange place on the edge of the world, with the ever mysterious Māori playing an important part of the plot. Excellent first book in a trilogy.

The best way I can describe this book is to call it a soap opera. It's entertaining don't get me wrong but things get ridiculous very quickly. I think it's safe to say I won't be continuing with the rest of the series despite my enjoyment of this book. There's only so much melodrama I can take.

4.5/5. Maravillosa historia familiar combinado con tintes históricos de Nueva Zelanda de la que he disfrutado muchísimo. Personajes muy logrados, protagonistas muy diferentes entre sí, prácticamente realismo en todo momento. Interesante aventura que continuaré.
