The Art Collector's Wife

In 1962 Venice, Italy, seventeen-year-old Isabel is shoplifting and skipping class until she discovers a fantastical secret about her Holocaust survivor grandmother Lila: she has stashed away a collection of Renaissance Art. To be fair, it's not a complete surprise: Lila is secretive about the war and that dreadful time before when the whole living world came to a standstill. More than anything else, Isabel longs to know about her mother and father who perished. THE ART COLLECTOR'S WIFE is a story that travels across the canals of Venice all the way to the catacombs of Paris in search of a family's truth.
