"A story about the extraordinary life and inventions of Guglielmo Marconi, the Father of wireless communication and his daughter's dream to keep his legacy alive. The inspired industrialist created an empire that his daughter, Princess Elettra, inherited when she was a seven year old child. Having spent her life travelling the world to promote Marconi's legacy, the Princess now wants to turn her vast and crumbling family palace into a radiant academy for the arts and science. Can she make her dream come true? Elettra grew up on the yacht she was named after. Her father, Guglielmo Marconi, had already invented, developed and marketed an invention that allows us to communicate through the ether: The Radio. As a girl, Elettra watched her father create magic on a floating paradise. For her, saving the lives of the Titanic survivors and tracking down criminals was just part of her father's protean wizardry. Marconi had started a revolution. Wireless was the most fabulous invention of the 19th century: the public thought it was magic, the popular newspapers regarded it as miraculous, and the leading scientists of the day could not understand how it worked. Marconi had built an empire and Elettra was the little mermaid that swam in pristine beaches around the world. She met illustrious people that came to visit "her boat". "
