Lord of the Mountains IV
The fascinating fate of the next generation of the de Braie family
Sebastian' s daughter Christina has a privileged position among the five brothers. She is proud and independent, which brings many problems in the French countryside of the mid-nineteenth century. After a scandalous love affair and a tragically ended marriage, she leaves for India, determined to dedicate her life to serving those most in need. Although she is successful and highly respected, life in the colonies will not bring her the satisfaction and peace she had hoped for. Her wild blood drives her to new adventures, passionate loves, and harsh clashes with her surroundings. After thirteen years, he decides to return to France. However, the situation has changed here too, and Christina is forced to defend her position. She is determined and unyielding, yet she has a weak spot – her teenage son Gilbert, whom she entrusted to Sylvia' s care before leaving.
