Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sweeping and sensuous novel of a son’s quest to recover his family’s lost masterpieces, looted by the Nazis during the occupation. Max Berenzon’s father is the most successful art dealer in Paris, owner of the Berenzon Gallery, home to both Picasso and Matisse. To Max’s great surprise, his father forbids him from entering the family business, choosing instead to hire a beautiful and brilliant gallery assistant named Rose Clément. When Paris falls to the Nazis, the Berenzons survive in hiding, but when they return in 1944 their gallery is empty, their priceless collection vanished. In a city darkened by corruption and black martketers, Max chases his twin obsessions: the lost paintings and Rose Clément.

Book excerpt: Composed in 1914, Ravel's sole work for the classical ensemble of piano, violin and cello was first heard in Paris at the Salle Gaveau on January 28, 1915, with Alfredo Casella on the piano, Gabriel Willaume on violin and Louis Feuillard on cello.
