From a Provencal chateau hiding wartime secrets, to Indian royalty and English aristocracy on the eve of the Great War, to an opera singer's rise across Italy's stages, each novel spans decades and continents with richly drawn settings. Riley's signature blend of romance, family legacy, and carefully researched history makes this three-book set an ideal introduction for new readers and a satisfying reread for longtime fans of layered, character-driven sagas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nEach novel in this set stands entirely on its own, yet together they showcase Lucinda Riley's gift for weaving intimate personal drama into grand historical settings. The Light Behind The Window follows Emilie de la Martinieres, who inherits her family's chateau in the south of France and uncovers a decades-old wartime story tied to a mysterious relative named Sophia, moving between the present day and occupied Paris in the 1940s. The Midnight Rose opens in India in 1911, where Anahita Chavan befriends Princess Indira and later travels to England just before the First World War, becoming entangled with the Astbury family's secrets and ambitions across generations. The Italian Girl traces the journey of Rosanna Menici, a gifted singer whose life and loves become bound up with opera, ambition, and the long shadow of the past. All three novels share Riley's hallmark structure of dual or multiple timelines, strong-willed heroines navigating constrained circumstances, and slow-unfolding family mysteries that reward patient, immersive reading. Readers who enjoy Kate Morton or Santa Montefiore will recognize the same appetite for old houses, buried letters, and secrets that ripple across decades. This set is a practical way to collect three full-length Riley novels in matching paperback editions, useful for readers building a complete shelf of her backlist or for anyone new to her work who wants to sample multiple settings and eras before committing to her longer Seven Sisters series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree complete, standalone historical novels by Lucinda Riley in one paperback set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpans France, India, England, and Italy across multiple twentieth-century eras\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for fans of Kate Morton, Santa Montefiore, and multigenerational sagas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new paperback copies, great for gifting or building a home library\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach novel can be read independently, in any order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA budget-friendly way to sample Riley's writing before her longer series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Light Behind The Window — Emilie de la Martinieres inherits a Provencal chateau and uncovers a wartime secret tied to her family's past.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Midnight Rose — Anahita Chavan's friendship with Princess Indira leads her from 1911 India into the tangled aristocracy of pre-war England.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Italian Girl — Rosanna Menici's rise as an opera singer becomes entwined with love, ambition, and long-buried secrets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nLucinda Riley was born in Ireland in 1965 and worked as an actress in film, theater, and television before publishing her first novel at twenty-four.
