Summary

A captivating novel of wartime Paris and the women who risked everything to protect priceless treasures for their country. A beautiful story of love and courage, from the internationally bestselling author of The Woman Before Wallis, perfect for fans of Natasha Lester and Rachel Hore.

EVERY CANVAS HOLDS A SECRET...

PARIS, 1940.

Three years ago, talented art restorer Sophie fled to Paris to escape the horrors of the Nazi regime. But now, with her beloved adoptive city under occupation, Sophie is forced to work at the renowned Jeu de Paume, restoring the art ruthlessly stolen from Jewish families.

Fabienne was a rising star of the glamorous Parisian art scene, until the Nazis put a stop to her craft. Mourning the loss of her husband, she's a shadow of her former self - until her estranged sister-in-law Sophie arrives at her door with a stolen painting in hand.

The two women embark on a treacherous plan: to save stolen artwork by replacing it with skilful forgeries, right under the watchful eyes of the Nazis. But just how long can they sustain their masterful illusion?
