Sicilia, all'epoca del tramonto borbonico. È di scena una famiglia della più alta aristocrazia, colta nel momento del trapasso del regime, mentre già incalzano i tempi nuovi. Accentrato intorno all'imponente personaggio del principe Fabrizio Salina, il romanzo offre un'immagine del clima di disincanto e di speranze deluse che seguì l'unificazione nazionale.

Und sie bleiben nicht alleine...Boston, 1961.

I survived the War of Cinders to live a quiet life, but corrupt politicians won’t leave us alone. To secure Aerenvale’s future, my beautiful elven companions and I are traveling to the capital to claim a county of my own. But Irendale is a pit of vipers and beneath the noble estates lies a rotting secret. I didn’t come to the capital to fight another war, but I’ll do whatever is necessary to protect what is mine. And hey, there’s the added advantage of seeing the girls in their most elegant dresses while we maneuver through the politics.

In November 2021, an inflatable dinghy carrying migrants from France to the United Kingdom capsized in the Channel causing the death of 27 people on board. Despite receiving numerous calls for help, the French authorities wrongly told the migrants they were in British waters and had to call the British authorities for help. By the time rescue vessels arrived on the scene, all but two of the migrants had died.

Amparándose en la coartada del terrorismo, unos políticos teócratas se hacen con el poder y, como primera medida, suprimen la libertad de prensa y los derechos de las mujeres. Esta trama, inquietante y oscura, que bien podría encontrarse en cualquier obra actual, pertenece en realidad a esta novela escrita por Margaret Atwood a principios de los ochenta, en la que la afamada autora canadiense anticipó con llamativa premonición una amenaza latente en el mundo de hoy.
