A fabulous historical ficton set in Paris before, during and after the atrocities of WWII. I was aware before reading the book of the looting of masterpieces but not aware of the extent. Although fiction, much of Houghteling's book is based on facts, and was a book I couldn't put down. She seamlessly blends historical fact with fictional romance and storylines, which kept me captivated. I was so interested in the loss of great art I'll be following up by reading the book The Rape of Europa and watching the documentary.
