ISBN 978-5-9614-95-43-0 Billy Letellier received her unusual name in honor of a singer who, according to family legend, had the most beautiful voice in the world. Since childhood, she has tried to understand what she has in common with the mysterious Billy Pretty. Perhaps a love for music? After all, nothing touches her heart like the gardener's singing in the city park, the sounds of piano from the apartment below, and favorite songs in her headphones. On one of the summer days, which all resemble each other, Billy meets Maxim on the stairs. Since then, their life paths constantly intersect, even when they live on different continents. But distinguishing love from friendship and not losing oneself in another turns out to be difficult. This is a poignant story about a girl who must discover the secret of her name and unravel the past to find her unique voice and start living by her own script.
