Dan needs her to locate a painting stolen by the Nazis more than 75 years earlier: legendary Expressionist artist Ernst Engel's most famous work, Woman on Fire. World-renowned shoe designer Ellis Baum wants this portrait of a beautiful, mysterious woman for deeply personal reasons, and has enlisted Dan's help to find it. But Jules doesn't have much time; the famous designer is dying. Meanwhile, in Europe, provocative and powerful Margaux de Laurent also searches for the painting. Heir to her art collector family's millions, Margaux is a cunning gallerist who gets everything she wants. The only thing standing in her way is Jules. Yet the passionate and determined Jules has unexpected resources of her own, including Adam Baum, Ellis's grandson. A recovering addict and brilliant artist in his own right, Adam was once in Margaux's clutches. He knows how ruthless she is, and he'll do anything to help Jules locate the painting before Margaux gets to it first."--Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Women journalists $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Painting $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Art thefts $z Germany $x History $y 20th century $v Fiction. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Lost works of art $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Journalists $v Fiction. 650 0 $a National socialism and art $v Fiction. 655 0 $a Suspense fiction. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft. 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction) $2 lcgft. 941 $a 7 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20240509012725.0 952 $l JSPB572 $d 20240323012437.0 952 $l JNPC081 $d 20231227013730.0 952 $l XAPE737 $d 20221006011720.0 952 $l ZXPC675 $d 20220604010804.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20220412014720.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20220406011009.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DE76D856B56E11ECAAE5E9575DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
