**And then came war . . .**
*Today.* Sera James spends most of her time arranging auctions for the art world's elite clientele. When her search to uncover an original portrait of an unknown Holocaust victim leads her to William Hanover III, they learn that this painting is much more than it seems.
*Vienna, 1942.* Adele Von Bron has always known what was expected of her. As a prodigy of Vienna's vast musical heritage, this concert violinist intends to carry on her family's tradition and play with the Vienna Philharmonic. But when the Nazis learn that she helped smuggle Jews out of the city, Adele is taken from her promising future and thrust into the horrifying world of Auschwitz.
The veil of innocence is lifted to expose a shuddering presence of evil, and Adele realizes that her God-given gift is her only advantage; she must play. Becoming a member of the Women's Orchestra of Auschwitz, she fights for survival. Adele's barbed-wire walls begin to kill her hope as the months drag into nearly two years in the camp. With surprising courage against the backdrop of murder and despair, Adele finally confronts a question that has been tugging at her heart: Even in the midst of evil, can she find hope in worshipping God with her gift?
As Sera and William learn more about the subject of the mysterious portrait-Adele-they are reminded that whatever horrors one might face, God's faithfulness never falters.

This is a poignant story of how, through faith, hope and beauty can shine through even the darkest places. Both stories intertwined in this novel (one in the present day, and one set in WWII) are engaging and heartwarming. My only complaint is that I felt each story deserved its own complete novel, rather than sharing one together - the plot seemed to speed forward when I would have like it to take its time.

Nazi Germany
Not just a pretty cover, this is a gorgeous story that I could not put down. Beautifully written - I will be looking out for more of Kristy Cambron's work!

Great Novel
This was a beautifully written novel. Sera James is an art gallery owner and has a desire to find an original masterpiece that draws her to find out many interesting things about another woman in WW2 Austria. The storylines are filled with great descriptions and I struggled to put the book down due to the intensity of the plot. I highly recommend it.
