Fiona Bell, please. She just received a call informing her that Anton Clark, her biological father, had passed away and left her a gift in his will. She needs to leave right away for Italy so that the will can be read. To say that this will be unpleasant would be an understatement. Due to her mother’s desires, she never got to meet her father. Fiona, then 18, was present as her mother passed away. Her mother revealed that she had an affair and that her father Freddie was not her biological father just before she passed away. Her real father, on the other hand, resided in Italy. Due to the fact that Freddie would be devastated, she made Fiona swear not to tell him.
Freddie, a quadriplegic, and his nurse are informed by Fiona that she needs to fly to London for work. She wants to safeguard her father’s feelings at all costs. As she arrives, she meets her half-sister Sloane and her half-brother Connor. They weren’t really excited to meet Fiona, and things got even more heated. The whole Maurizio winery, including all structures on the property’s nine hundred hectares, is left to Fiona at the reading of the will (2,223.9 acres). Also, she gets all of the cash assets. Sloane and Connor are committed to challenging the will’s decision. Do they have the ability to?
Two timelines—Tuscany 1986 and Tuscany 2017—are used to tell the story. Dual timelines have such a great appeal to me. Everyone has the initial impression that Anton and Lillian did not get along well. Is that indeed the case? Fiona is adamant about finding out the truth about what actually transpired all those years ago in Tuscany. She learns from her investigation that Lillian served as an English tour guide at the vineyard in the summer of 1986 when her father was working on a book. She discovers more and more about what actually occurred every day.
