[Spanish] - Rivals (Las Crónicas de Rutshire)

"El glamuroso y despiadado mundo de la televisión británica de los 80 nunca había sido tan cautivador: fiestas de lujo, aristócratas sedientes de poder y escándalos delante y fuera de cámaras. La novela de la famosa serie de Disney+ por fin llega a las librerías. Lord Baddingham está decidido a conservar su franquicia de Corinium Television y para ello ha contratado a Declan O'Hara, una megaestrella irlandesa de los programas de entrevistas. Baddingham también ha convencido a Cameron Cook, una ejecutiva implacable y deslumbrante, para que produzca el programa de Declan. Sin embargo, un terremoto mediático se avecina: Declan y Cameron se detestan. Es entonces cuando entra en escena Rupert Campbell-Black, un exdeportista convertido en político tan guapo como descarado, que trae a todas las mujeres de la comarca de cabeza. Con la aparición de un grupo de televisión rival que compite por la franquicia, las reputaciones se forjarán y se destruirán, el amor verdadero florecerá y se consumirá, los matrimonios se harán y se desharán, y todos lucharan en la cama y en la sala de reuniones por llegar a lo más alto. Sobre Rivals han dicho: «La manera en la que escribe Jilly Cooper es divertidísima, ingeniosa, mordaz e impecablemente entretenida». Helen Fielding, autora de El diario de Bridget Jones «Una combinación excelente de drama, sexo y comedia social No puedes dejar de leer». The Sunday Times «Alegre y llena de picardía. No conozco a ninguna mujer de mi edad que no admita que Rupert Campbell-Black estuvo a punto de arruinarles la visión que tenían de los hombres de por vida». Jojo Moyes, autora de Yo antes de ti «Jilly Cooper es la mejor sin duda Elegante, glamurosa, y diversión asegurada». Daily Mail Y de la serie han dicho: «¿Cuál es la mejor forma de valorar un escapismo tan exquisitamente inteligente? ¿Diez estrellas? ¿Diez mil estrellas? Rivals va más allá de cualquier elogio». The Guardian «…además, es una serie de televisión maravillosamente optimista. Es descaradamente festiva y esta temporada es quizá incluso mejor que la anterior. No queda duda alguna: hay mucho que esperar de ella. Abre una botella y disfruta». The Times «Termino cada episodio de Rivals sintiéndome feliz, satisfecha y como si todo estuviera bien en el mundo». Grazia UK, Hattie Crisell"

Polo: Rutshire Chronicles, Book 3

"Escape to the 80s – the decade of decadence… Ricky France-Lynch was moody, macho, and magnificent. He had a large crumbling estate, a nine-goal polo handicap, and a beautiful wife who was fair game for anyone with a cheque book. He also had the adoration of fourteen-year-old Perdita MacLeod. Perdita couldn't wait to leave her dreary school and become a polo player. The polo set were ritzy, wild, and gloriously promiscuous. Perdita thought she'd get along with them very well. But before she had time to grow up, Ricky's life exploded into tragedy, and Perdita turned into a brat who loved only her horses - and Ricky France-Lynch. Ricky's obsession to win back his wife, and Perdita's to win both Ricky and a place as a top class polo player, take the reader on a wildly exciting journey - to the estancias of Argentina, to Palm Beach and Deauville, and on to the royal polo fields of England and the glamorous pitches of California where the most heroic battle of all is destined to be fought - a match that is about far more than just the winning of a huge silver cup..."

Rivals: Rutshire Chronicles, Book 2

"A brand-new recording narrated by Georgia Tennant, star of Doctor Who: Dreamland and Staged. Who will take the Cotswold Crown? Into the cut-throat world of Corinium television comes Declan O'Hara, a mega-star of great glamour and integrity with a radiant feckless wife, a handsome son and two ravishing teenage daughters. Living rather too closely across the valley is Rupert Campbell-Black, divorced and as dissolute as ever, and now the Tory Minister for Sport. Declan needs only a few days at Corinium to realise that the Managing Director, Lord Baddingham, is a crook who has recruited him merely to help retain the franchise for Corinium. Baddingham has also enticed Cameron Cook, a gorgeous but domineering woman executive, to produce Declan's programme. Declan and Cameron detest each other, provoking a storm of controversy into which Rupert plunges with his usual abandon. As a rival group emerges to pitch for the franchise, reputations ripen and decline, true love blossoms and burns, marriages are made and shattered, and sex raises its (delicious) head at almost every throw as, in bed and boardroom, the race is on to capture the Cotswold Crown.

Score!: Rutshire Chronicles, Book 6

"Sir Robert Rannaldini, the most successful but detested conductor in the world, had two ambitions: to seduce his ravishing nineteen-year-old stepdaughter Tabitha Campbell-Black, and to put his mark on musical history by making the definitive film of Verdi's darkest opera, Don Carlos. As Rannaldini, Tristan, his charismatic French director, a volatile cast and bolshy French crew gather at Rannaldini's haunted abbey for filming, it is inevitable that violent feuds, abandoned bonking, temperamental screaming, and devious plotting will ensue. But although everyone wished Rannaldini dead, no one actually thought the Maestro would be murdered. Or that after the dreadful deed some very bizarre things would continue to occur."

Pandora: Rutshire Chronicles, Book 7

"Jilly Cooper returns with love, high living, intrigue and a missing painting. No picture ever came more beautiful than Raphael's Pandora. Discovered by a dashing young lieutenant, Raymond Kelvedon in a Normandy Chateau in 1944, she had cast her spell over his family - all artists and dealers - for fifty years. Hanging in a turret of their lovely Cotswold house, Pandora witnessed Raymond's tempestuous wife Galena both entertaining a string of lovers, and giving birth to her four children: Jupiter, Alizarin, Jonathan and superbrat Sienna. Then an exquisite stranger rolls up, claiming to be a long-lost daughter of the family, setting the three Belvedon brothers at each other's throats. Accompanying her is her fatally glamorous boyfriend, whose very different agenda includes an unhealthy interest in the Raphael. During a fireworks party, the painting is stolen. The hunt to retrieve it takes the reader on a thrilling journey to Vienna, Geneva, Paris, New York and London. After a nail-biting court case and a record-smashing Old Masters sale at Sotheby's, passionate love triumphs and Pandora is restored to her rightful home. 'This is Jilly in top form with her most sparkling novel to date.' EVENING STANDARD"

Wicked: Rutshire Chronicles, Book 8

"Two schools - both in leafy Larkshire, but worlds apart. The incomparable Jilly Cooper turns her brilliant pen to the explosive world of education. At Bagley Hall, a notoriously wild, but increasingly academic, independent, crammed with the children of the famous, trouble is afoot. The ambitious and fatally attractive headmaster, Hengist Brett-Taylor, hatches a plan to share the facilities of his school with Larkminster Comprehensive - known locally, as 'Larks'. His reasons for doing so are purely financial, but he is encouraged by the opportunities the scheme gives him for frequent meetings with Janna Curtis, the dynamic new head of Larks, who has been drafted in to save what is a fast-sinking school from closure. Janna is young, pretty, enthusiastic and vastly brave - and she will do anything to rescue her demoralised, run-down and cash-strapped school. Neither parents nor staff of either school are too keen on this radical move, although some can see the possible financial advantages. For the students, however, it offers great opportunities to get up to even more mayhem than usual. 'My reading of Jilly Cooper's Wicked! was not guiltily pleasurable - it was just pleasurable... a brilliantly refreshing read.' POLLY VERNON, OBSERVER"
