- Summary of the four parts -

Part One

-Falling-

Beirut: in September of the year of our Lord 1975... all airlines stopped flying to Lebanon's capital: because of the brutal, bloody and relentless civil war that had been raging there for almost fifteen years.

But one plane is on its way... but unfortunately it never arrives. This is the story of the Khoury family orphans who were waiting for their father on that beautiful night: the Lebanese millionaire businessman Khoury Hamdan, who will never again bring a baby to his children.

The young widow leaves everything behind to move to Hungary with her children; Cyprus would be the ideal place for them, but she chooses Budapest to start a new life and face the cruel reality of the past: that the father of her children's love is no more.

But time does not stand still... the children grow up: Diana is a beautiful and clever woman, while Mohamed is a true IT genius. But there's something else: the legacy their father left behind, which hasn't been settled in 25 years, is just a real palace orphaned in Beirut.

Love finds them in the meantime, and together they embark on a great adventure in search of the inheritance... but the inheritance is the least that awaits them there... I might add, dear reader, that you will have no less to look forward to when the series of novellas comes to an end... I can assure you of that with absolute certainty...
