Über diesen Titel

A sheltered young woman living at the Chateau Marmont falls under the spell of a scandalous, secretive man as all of Hollywood's glamour swirls around her—a stunning feminist reimagining of Jane Eyre from the New York Times bestselling author of The Paris Seamstress.

In 1957, newly orphaned Aria Jones is sent to live with her aunt, a fading star who hides away in Hollywood's infamous Chateau Marmont. There, two aspiring actresses, Calliope and Flitter, take grieving Aria under their wing.

But the Marmont isn't meant for small girls with big hearts, and Aria's first few nights reveal an insidious secret that continues to haunt her as she grows up in the hotel's halls, where the bright lights of Hollywood cast even darker shadows. If Aria can just stay invisible and invite no trouble as she saves money, then she can leave the Marmont and live life on her own terms—alone, but free.

All her carefully laid plans are shattered when the hotel is bought by Theo Winchester: a reclusive rockstar turned unexpected caretaker of his daughter Adele, and unlike any man Aria has met before. To earn the last bit of money she needs to escape, Aria becomes Adele's tutor, which brings Aria closer to Theo and ignites a passion she never expected.

Suddenly, Aria finds herself wondering if she still wants to remain invisible—and if inviting trouble is a risk she's willing to take to pursue what she truly desires.

Kritikerstimmen

“Atmospheric and haunting . . . a powerful reimagining of Jane Eyre told through the glittering and gothic lens of 1950s and ’60s Hollywood. Lester brings Hollywood glamour and decay to life within the fascinating walls of the iconic Chateau Marmont . . . Spellbinding.”—Chanel Cleeton, New York Times bestselling author of The Lost Story of Eva Fuentes

“Reader, I loved it! The Chateau on Sunset is a triumph of storytelling. From its mesmerizing prologue to the perfect last line, Natasha Lester weaves a smart, intoxicating tale of secrets and ghosts inside the famous walls of Hollywood’s Chateau Marmont, which becomes a character all of its own. Beautifully written and compulsively told, Lester’s latest is a clever reimagining of Charlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre, with subtle nods to the classic text which are an absolute joy to discover. It is also a novel with a deeply feminist heartbeat which—given its setting—rightfully reflects on the MeToo conversation of recent years.”—Hazel Gaynor, New York Times bestselling author of Before Dorothy
