TUSCANY, 1470: in the bright light of a new day, an artist lies awake, imagining a fresco that will shape his future and echo down the centuries. 1922: A member of the Bloomsbury Group writes to her secret lover about a painting that changed her life; she believes it will change his too.

Inside it hangs a painting said to be the greatest ever made. To save it, he must disobey orders, risking his career and even his freedom. 2014: A young conservator arrives in Sansepolcro to restore Piero della Francesca’s Resurrection, and discovers she must preserve not only the painting but also the stories of those who saved it.

Drawing on real letters and unpublished diaries, this sweeping novel is based on the remarkable true story of four people who risked love – and even their lives – for one great masterpiece.
