"La epopeya de una niña judía por salvar a su hermano se convertirá en un ejemplo a seguir para quienes han vivido marcados por el peso de la culpa.
La verdad siempre encuentra la luz.
París, julio de 1942. Las autoridades arrestan a 13.000 judíos ante la mirada de los parisinos, que guardan silencio por miedo, indiferencia o simple interés, pues esperan ocupar las viviendas vacías.
El pequeño Michel se oculta en un armario para huir de la redada. Su hermana Sarah cierra la puerta para protegerle y se guarda la llave, pensando que va a regresar en unas horas. Sin embargo, el destino de los Starzynski es protagonizar una de las páginas más tristes de la historia. Los gendarmes confinan a los miles de detenidos durante cinco días en el Velódromo de Invierno, cerca de la Torre Eiffel, sin comida ni agua. Después envían a las familias a un campo de concentración francés, donde los separan como paso previo a su posterior traslado a Auschwitz.
París, mayo de 2002. Julia Jarmond, una periodista norteamericana afincada en Francia desde hace veinte años, recibe el encargo de preparar un reportaje con ocasión del sexagésimo aniversario de la redada. La reportera reconstruye el itinerario de los Starzynski y la lucha denodada de Sarah por salvar a su hermano, pero lo último que puede imaginar es que la investigación le conduzca hasta los Tézac, la familia de su marido.
La llave de Sarah abre, entre otras cosas, la puerta de la redención.
La crítica ha dicho...
«Un viaje estremecedor hacia los horrores del nazismo y el colaboracionismo de los franceses.»

"The nonfiction debut from beloved international sensation and #1 New York Times bestselling author Tatiana de Rosnay: her bestselling biography of novelist Daphne du Maurier.
“It's impressive how Tatiana was able to recreate the personality of my mother, including her sense of humor. It is very well written and very moving. I’m sure my mother would have loved this book.” — Tessa Montgomery d’Alamein, daughter of Daphné du Maurier, as told to Pauline Sommelet in Point de Vue
As a bilingual bestselling novelist with a mixed Franco-British bloodline and a host of eminent forebears, Tatiana de Rosnay is the perfect candidate to write a biography of Daphne du Maurier. As an eleven-year-old de Rosnay read and reread Rebecca, becoming a lifelong devotee of Du Maurier’s fiction. Now de Rosnay pays homage to the writer who influenced her so deeply, following Du Maurier from a shy seven-year-old, a rebellious sixteen-year-old, a twenty-something newlywed, and finally a cantankerous old lady. With a rhythm and intimacy to its prose characteristic of all de Rosnay’s works, Manderley Forever is a vividly compelling portrait and celebration of an intriguing, hugely popular and (at the time) critically underrated writer."
"From the internationally best-selling author of SARAH'S KEY comes an irreverent yet heartfelt collection that examines our most intimate and forbidden desires
Late nights at the office... Hotel rooms and secret rendezvous... Lingering perfume... Sizzling texts...
What takes place in Paris when husbands and wives tangle with infidelity?
In this compulsively readable collection, Tatiana de Rosnay paints a portrait of forbidden loves in many shades - sometimes tragic, sometimes humorous, sometimes heartfelt, always with a dry wit and unflinching authenticity. A PARIS AFFAIR will take you on a vacation overseas, into the hidden lives of husbands, wives, boyfriends and girlfriends, where illicit desire wars with duty, and where a French take on romance will surprise you every time."

"From the New York Times and international bestselling author Tatiana de Rosnay comes The Other Story, '[a] brilliant pager-turner'(BookPage), layered and beautifully written, that is a reflection on identity, the process of being a writer and the repercussions of generations-old decisions as they echo into the present and shape the future.
When Nicolas Duhamel was twenty-four years old, he stumbled upon a troubling secret about his family, a secret that was carefully concealed. In shock, Nicolas embarked on a journey to uncover the truth that took him from the Basque coast to St. Petersburg-but the answers wouldn't come easily.
In the process of digging into his past, something else happened. Nicolas began writing a novel that was met with phenomenal success, skyrocketing him to literary fame whether he was ready for it or not-and convincing him that he had put his family's history firmly behind him. But now, years later, Nicolas must reexamine everything he thought he knew, as he learns that, however deeply buried, the secrets of the past always find a way out.
Page-turning, layered and beautifully written, THE OTHER STORY is a reflection on identity, the process of being a writer and the repercussions of generations-old decisions as they echo into the present and shape the future."
