Cora is finally at peace. Living in beautiful Golden Bay (New Zealand) after years feeling torn between her birthplace, Spain, and New Zealand, she has found the courage to follow her dreams. But then life issues a final blow, threatening to steal her happiness away.

Relaxed and grounded, Cora's best-friend Irene has always been the perfect mother. But when her daughters grow up and leave home, Irene feels lost. Then she receives a letter from Cora with a life-changing request.

Cora's sister Sofia lives a dull life in Madrid. A literature professor, she longs for something else. When Irene invites her on a trip of a lifetime, Sofia struggles to separate her anger towards her sister from her own need to spread her wings and find freedom.

A Trip Towards the Sunset, set against the stunning backdrops of New Zealand, Scotland, Spain and Germany, is a story of grief, love, the search for self-fulfilment, and the unbreakable bonds of friendship and sisterhood.
