“Unforgettable . . . a powerful, page-turning tale of two extraordinary heroines who risk their lives rescuing stolen masterpieces during the Nazi occupation of Paris. A stunning read!”—Chanel Cleeton, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of Our Last Days in Barcelona
From internationally bestselling author Bryn Turnbull comes a breathtaking novel about art theft and forgery in Nazi-occupied Paris, and two brave women who risk their lives rescuing looted masterpieces from Nazi destruction.
Sophie Dix fled Stuttgart with her brother as the Nazi regime gained power in Germany. Now, with her brother gone and her adopted home city of Paris conquered by the Reich, Sophie reluctantly accepts a position restoring damaged art at the Jeu de Paume museum under the supervision of the ERR—a German art commission using the museum as a repository for art they’ve looted from Jewish families.
Fabienne Brandt was a rising star in the Parisian bohemian arts movement until the Nazis put a stop to so-called “degenerate” modern art. Still mourning the loss of her firebrand husband, she’s resolved to muddle her way through the occupation in whatever way she can—until her estranged sister-in-law, Sophie, arrives at her door with a stolen painting in hand.
Soon the two women embark upon a plan to save Paris’s “degenerates,” working beneath the noses of Germany’s top art connoisseurs to replace the paintings in the Jeu de Paume with skillful forgeries—but how long can Sophie and Fabienne sustain their masterful illusion?

How does an author wanting to write a World War II story come up with a niche that no other author has come up with before? That seems to be a challenge but what an author should strive to do, at least from my layman's perspective. There are so many topics one can write about WWII I often think of it as a Rubik cube, twist it around a bit and you get a different story.
The author in this one does come up with a new idea, at least from my vantagepoint, writing a work of historical fiction where you tackle the challenge, that really happened in WWII, where lovers of art in occupied Paris work to save as much of the art that was being stolen by the Nazis.
The author does a great job of weaving a tale bringing this to life. The author, a Canadian from Toronto, had to do a lot of research into Nazi stolen art, art restoration, forgeries, the occupation itself, wine and champagne making, the French resistance, there are a lot of different aspects to the story. She does a good job with it all.
This was a fun, enjoyable listen. I will definitely look into her other works.

The narrator really did a great job. She has such depth—she nails all the accents! (Even the American accent sounded just right, and I’m a tough critic there!). It’s stories and narrations like this that keep me interested in WWII journeys.
