Description
1942. When Jessica May's successful modelling career is abruptly cut short, Vogue sends her to war-torn Paris to cover the conflict as a correspondent. She's courageous and a fast learner, but the military men make her life difficult. Three friendships change her: journalist Martha Gellhorn encourages Jess to bend the rules; paratrooper Dan Hallworth shows her how to take pictures and write stories that matter; and a little girl, Victorine, shows Jess how to open her heart.
2005. Australian curator D'Arcy Hallworth arrives at a beautiful French chateau to manage a famous collection of photographs. What begins as just another job becomes far more disquieting as D'Arcy uncovers the true identity of the mysterious French photographer...
Perfect for fans of Kate Furnivall, Lucinda Riley, Kate Morton and Gill Paul
