Little Bit of a review...

Hillary, Alexandra and Megan, three orphan walker sisters who have been torn apart in their early childhood... One act of madness changed those three 3 lives a lot... AS a "Kaleidoscope" gives different shapes when it rotates, these three lives lead to totally different paths as they torn apart from each other... 30 years of time after they lost their parents, Hillary practically runs a TV network, Alexandra lives in a fancy house in France with her Nobel husband and two lovely daughters, Magen, a doctor who is willing to sacrifice her life for the cause of saving poor hillbillies... Who should take the responsibility for their 30 years of separation? Is it Arthur who torn them apart and kept no trace of them afterwards or was it sam their own father who killed their mother Solange in the first place and committed suicide inside a prison cell? That leaves unanswered till the latter half of the book when Hilary reveals the truth... The truth which shocked everyone... Hillary is the one who had a bitter life while other two had decent lives... She has the right to hate Arthur but still readers gets the idea it is too over reacting hatred for separating them and keeping no trace of them afterwards... But she gives a good answer which justifies her hatred is fair enough... She was beaten, she was raped and yet she didn't give up her dream to find her little sisters until she finally met Arthur when she was 17... She was pregnant once and the fears of separation obviously lead her to do an abortion... After that she totally obsessed with her work in the network just to forget her past... she was called merciless by majority, a person once been cared a lot about her sisters turned in to a person who doesn’t think of anyone at all as a result of the horrible things she had to face... Arthur finally wants to get them sisters back together after he finds he is dying in no time... he hires private investigator John and with his enormous effort he finds all of them and get them back together... All of them sacrifice so many things just to see each other again... But they never regret that decision... specially it was very brave of Alexandra to disobey her husband and come all the way to America with her mother and her children... before she left Paris she had to tell the truth to her husband, who cared a lot about her family tree... it almost gave him a panic attack and she thought he would call right away his attorneys and divorce her... But he loved her more than she thought and loves her no matter from what the family she comes from... Meanwhile john was able to make sure Hillary she can trust him and love him and everything will be alright from here after... But what makes readers really astonished is the reveal of Hillary, her mother Solange had had an affair with Arthur and Solange told Sam that fateful night the truth which even Arthur wasn’t aware of, Megan is Arthur's child and that made Sam furious and that anger made him kill her... That was the end of their fairytale love which started in Paris during second world war...The truth of an unspoken tragedy reveals after 30 years…
