Sister Siren Books
— home of the debut novel Moonstone Mountain —
At the Moorish Monserrate Palace, hidden deep in the mountains of Sintra, Portugal, Sister Siren uncovered a story seeping through the cracks of time.
She could see it all around her — the lavish parties, the scandals, the Gatsby-esque frivolity.
Despite the palace standing empty for nearly 80 years — and likely devoid of any such parties in over a century — it seemed to her the veil between the past and the present had grown thin on that May day in 2024.
She could sense the ghostly presence of the family that once lived there, the echoes of their music and laughter lingering in every room. Their energy was still thick, as if they were calling out from the faded wallpaper, from beneath the glossy marble floor, from behind the dusty bookcases, and beyond the closed doors.
And the more she wandered the grounds and gardens, the more she needed to know…
what it had really been like at Monserrate Palace, one hundred years ago.
So, she left Lisbon with a vision,
she researched,
and she wrote
of timing and its cost,
of love and loss,
and the power of letting go.
Moonstone Mountain
