Santa Montefiore - The Gypsy Madonna

Beschrijving boek

A Titian masterpiece. A sumptuous chateau with a deadly secret. A Nazi warlord with a thirst for art. A vicious crowd and a sinister priest in a France of patriots and traitors. A small boy and his beautiful French mother. A raffish American with a plaintive voice and an enchanted guitar, who breezes into a Bordeaux village, full of mysteries and magic, and changes their lives forever.

Elegant Anouk, a dealer in American antiques, dies leaving the Metropolitan museum a priceless, uncatalogued painting by Titian. Her son, Mischa, was completely unaware of its existence. This mystery sends him on the trail of his own history, back to the French village of his childhood. He expects to uncover the origins of the Gypsy Madonna; he does not expect to find himself.
