Anne Jacobs - A villa öröksége

Augsburg, 1920s.

Everyone in the Melzer villa looks to the future with confidence. Paul returns home from Russian captivity and takes over the management of the textile factory to revive the family business. Her younger sister Elisabeth moves to Pomerania, to the ancient manor house of their mother's ancestors.

And Paul's young wife, Marie, realizes her long-cherished dream: she opens her own fashion salon and achieves great success with her creations. But a mysterious package and some paintings bring back the past. Marie remembers the time when she worked as a servant in the villa, which could have been hers through her father...

Meanwhile, Elisabeth's marriage lies in ruins, and she is less and less able to hide her unquenchable love for Sebastian Winkler, who works hard on the Pomeranian estate.

Anne Jacobs' exciting romantic novel offers insight into the everyday life of a wealthy family and servants. The third volume, which can also be read independently, takes you to Germany after the First World War, where the staff awakens to self-awareness and with some ingenuity the poor can become rich, but everyone has to fight equally for love.

We especially recommend it to fans of the hit series Downton Abbey.
