Book Description:
“Sonya Cobb combines the rarified atmosphere of museum scholarship, illegal art trafficking, and the sticky desperation of young motherhood to craft a superbly written thriller.” – Karen Engelmann, author of The Stockholm Octavo
“A tautly plotted and elegantly written debut about the shame of secrets and the power of home. I held my breath with every twist and turn — and marveled over each effortlessly beautiful sentence.” – Kelly Simmons, author of Standing Still and The Bird House
Sophie Porter is the last person in the world you’d expect to organize an art heist—and that’s exactly why she’s so good at it. When Sophie bought a house with her husband, a curator for the Philadelphia Museum of Art, she thought it would provide security for her family. Instead, after the housing market collapse, they’re in danger of losing it all. So when she accidentally walks out of the museum’s disorganized storage area with a stunning antique, Sophie realizes she’s found a way out of their crushing debt. As she comes close to destroying the life she’s working so hard to build, Sophie knows she should abandon her part-time crime. Unfortunately, it may be too late.
