From the New York Times bestselling author comes this extraordinary masterpiece of historical fiction that will have you wiping tears from your face

Paris, 1939

When Nazis occupy the city, Eliane Dufort is heartbroken - her lover flees for England and her family to the country. She finds herself working at the Louvre on a dangerous secret mission for the French Resistance: to record the priceless national treasures the Germans are stealing.

Present Day

Desperate to escape her grief, Remy Lang leaves her life in Sydney for the French Riviera. While working on her vintage fashion business, she discovers a catalogue of artworks stolen during World War II and is shocked to see a painting that hung on her childhood bedroom wall. Does the Rivera house hold more secrets than Remy is ready to face?

Lush, engrossing and deeply moving, this is the story of the brave women who worked against the Nazis, told by the international bestselling author of The Paris Secret and The French Photographer.
