Description

'Fascinating & compelling. I loved all four women' ELODIE HARPER, author of THE WOLF DEN'MAGNIFICENT...It's simply too good' KATIE LOWE, author of THE FURIES'Utterly compelling' KIRAN MILLWOOD HARGRAVE, author of THE MERCIES___________________________________________Vienna, 1912.

Behind every painting, there is a story... A new century is dawning. Vienna is at its zenith, an opulent, extravagant city teeming with art, music and radical ideas.

It is a place where anything seems possible... Edith and Adele are sisters, the daughters of a wealthy bourgeois family.

They are expected to follow the rules, to marry well, and produce children.

Gertrude is in thrall to her flamboyant older brother.

Marked by a traumatic childhood, she envies the freedom he so readily commands.

Vally was born into poverty but is making her way in the world as a model for the eminent artist Gustav Klimt. Fierce, passionate and determined, none of these women is quite what they seem.

But their lives are set on a collision course when they become entangled with the controversial young artist Egon Schiele whose work - and private life - are sending shockwaves through Viennese society.

All it will take is a single act of betrayal to set their world on fire... _______________________________'Glorious' Guardian'Intoxicating and evocative...full of controversy and drama.
