About the book
The time has arrived for Cassiopeia Vitt to part ways with her family's ancestral estate. Perched on a rocky bluff overlooking the Mediterranean Sea in Spain, the home known as Casa de Hace Mucho Tiempo, or House of Long Ago, holds within its walls memories of Cassiopeia's formative years. Through the corridors echo the struggles and growth of a young girl becoming a woman, often at odds with her parents.
Within the house are fifteen priceless paintings, a collection amassed by her father worth millions of euros, destined for donation to museums. However, a shocking revelation that the paintings are all forgeries raises suspicions about her father's involvement in illegal activities. Determined to uncover the truth, Cassiopeia sets out on a journey that takes her from a hidden repository in Andorra to a luxurious yacht on the Mediterranean, and ultimately to the streets of Paris, where a dark chapter of World War II holds a crucial clue.
As she faces danger at every turn, Cassiopeia must confront the ghosts of the past and fight for her survival, all in pursuit of the truth behind the House of Long Ago.
