Perfect for fans of Alice Hoffman, Isabel Allende, and Sarah Addison Allen, this is a gorgeously written novel about a family searching for the truth hidden in their past and the power they’ve inherited, from the author of the acclaimed and “giddily exciting” (The New York Times Book Review) Brooklyn Brujas series.


The Montoyas are used to a life without explanations. They know better than to ask why the pantry never seems to run low or empty, or why their matriarch won’t ever leave their home in Four Rivers – even for graduations, weddings, or baptisms. But when Orquídea Divina invites them to her funeral and to collect their inheritance, they hope to learn the secrets that she has held onto so tightly their whole lives. Instead, Orquídea is transformed, leaving them with more questions than answers.


Seven years later, her gifts have manifested in different ways for Marimar, Rey, and Tatinelly’s daughter, Rhiannon, granting them unexpected blessings. But soon, a hidden figure begins to tear through their family tree, picking them off one by one as it seeks to destroy Orquídea’s line. Determined to save what’s left of their family and uncover the truth behind their inheritance, the four descendants travel to Ecuador – to the place where Orquídea buried her secrets and broken promises and never looked back.


Alternating between Orquídea’s past and her descendants’ present, The Inheritance of Orquídea Divina is an enchanting novel about what we knowingly and unknowingly inherit from our ancestors, the ties that bind, and reclaiming your power.

    生动、奇幻,余音绕梁。

    听字面意思,这是一部苦命女遇渣男的爱恨情仇史,渣男控制了超能力的外星人,苦命女与外星人奴隶对抗渣男,但祸及后人。 为了神秘感,采用了一章叙述当下,一章追溯前情,人为复杂化的非线性叙事手法,加上西裔大家族的西班牙语名字,让人很久都入赘云雾,不知所云。第十集以后追述部分逐渐清晰。 播音应会西语,西语人名地名发音标准,讲述有声有色,只可惜被滥俗剧情拖累(为了应景非要把男一写成同性恋,与剧情毫无关系),选材不慎啊!
