So you think you know about Evita? No, you don't. Ask Mona, her confidant, or Pierre, her bodyguard. They have the inside track. Argentina fell in love with Eva Peron during her lifetime. The world followed suit later with the help of a Broadway musical about her Life, Evita. But there is much we don't know about the first lady of Argentina. For example, where are her jewels? They seem to have disappeared. Mona can tell you where they are - in a vault in the Swiss Alps. Like Eva herself, Mona comes from a broken family and has to make her own way. Perhaps that's why the two women feel close. Evita is at the pinnacle of success but already in the grip of a fatal illness. We see her life through the eyes of Mona and Pierre, two people she trusts -- and who betray her in the end. Or can theft and murder be justified? Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Mona is definitely a character unto herself, a jaded 16 year old grifter going on 46 or more! This book is a coming of age story for her. What a way to learn about life and finding your sexual orientation! Most of the other characters set such a bad example, her mother and Juan to name just two. And then there's the tragic figure of Evita Peron, who came from a similar poor background and became the First Lady of Argentina, adored by her people, who considered her a saint, just to lose her life at an early age to cancer. After reading this book, I definitely want to learn more about Eva Peron and Argentina's history and culture. ( )
