Ny stor stand-alone roman af forfatteren til bestselleren Den franske fotograf og Den hemmelige arv.Paris 1939. Under den tyske besættelse af byen får den unge franske kvinde Éliane Dufort til opgave at katalogisere Louvres kunstskatte. Hvad de tyske soldater, der overvåger arbejdet, ikke ved, er, at Éliane forstår tysk og holder øje med, hvilke kunstværkerne tyskerne er i færd med at stjæle til deres egne private samlinger. Sin viden deler hun med den franske modstandsbevægelse, men hvor lang tid vil der gå, før hun bliver afsløret? Nutiden. Efter en personlig tragedie har den australske modeekspert Remy Lang søgt tilflugt i et vidunderligt hus på Den Franske Riviera, som hun har arvet. Under sit ophold i huset opdager Remy en fortegnelse over kunstværker stjålet under 2. verdenskrig, og hun er chokeret over på listen at opdage et maleri, der hang på hendes børneværelse hjemme i Sydney. Hvem er hendes familie egentlig? Og gemmer huset på Rivieraen på flere hemmeligheder? Til alle læsere, der elsker romaner om heltemodige kvinder under 2. verdenskrig som Martha Hall Kellys Blomstrende syrener eller Kate Quinns Kodenavn Alice. NATASHA LESTER er australsk forfatter til en række historiske romaner. Hun var marketingschef hos L’Oréal, før hun gjorde alvor af drømmen om at blive forfatter.

I sin jagt på svar støder Kat både på søstrene Skye og Liberty, der kæmpede for englænderne under 2. verdenskrig, og deres barndomsven den amerikanske pilot Nicholas, der var forlovet med den franske kvinde Margaux. En anden fransk kvinde, der ser ud til at have forbindelse til sagen er Catherine, søster til Christian Dior og aktiv i den franske modstandsbevægelse. Skye og Liberty. Nicholas og Margaux.

    1940. Da tyskerne rykker frem mod Paris, bliver den unge syerske Estella Bissette tvunget til at flygte fra alt, hvad hun har kært. Hun sætter kursen mod New York med blot et par francs på lommen, en kuffert med det allermest nødvendige, sin symaskine og en stor drøm om at åbne sin egen systue. 2015. Den australske kurator Fabienne Bissette rejser til New York for at arbejde på en udstilling af de værker, som hendes bedstemor, en af verdens førende modedesignere, har skabt. Men efterhånden som Fabienne finder ud af mere om sin bedstemors fortid, afdækker hun også en tragisk historie om hjertesorg og familiehemmeligheder, som på dramatisk vis vil ændre hendes eget liv. Der ligger altid solid research bag Natasha Lesters romaner, så ud over de medrivende historier får læseren også et indblik i et hjørne af 2. verdenskrig, som de måske ikke vidste så meget om i forvejen. I Den franske fotograf var det de kvindelige journalister og fotografers vilkår ved fronten, i Den hemmelige arv var det de kvindelige piloter, og i Huset på Rivieraen er det nazisternes kunsttyverier og kvinderne i den franske modstandsbevægelse. I En syerske i New York er det 1940'ernes modeverden, vi lærer noget om.
