"This is a truly original novel that has earned its place among my favorite works of historical fiction."--Jennifer Robson, USA Today bestselling author of The Gown

An exciting, dual-timeline
historical novel about the creation of one of Leonardo da Vinci's most famous
paintings, Portrait of a Lady with an
Ermine,
and the woman who fought to save it from Nazi destruction during
World War II.

Milan, 1492: When a 16-year old beauty
becomes the mistress of the Duke of Milan, she must fight for her place in
the palace--and against those who want her out. Soon, she finds herself
sitting before Leonardo da Vinci, who wants to ensure his own place in the
ducal palace by painting his most ambitious portrait to date.


Munich, World War II: After a
modest conservator unwittingly places a priceless Italian Renaissance
portrait into the hands of a high-ranking Nazi leader, she risks her life to
recover it, working with an American soldier, part of the famed Monuments Men
team, to get it back.


Two women, separated by 500 years,
are swept up in the tide of history as one painting stands at the center of
their quests for their own destinies.
