A decent little mystery that switches between two main protagonists. Engaging, but a left with a feeling of something to be desired.

I absolutely loved everything about this book. I love that the author layered a fictional story over real life people and events. This is one of those books that I wish I could read over again for the very first time. With a dual time line set in 1919 and 1966 and heavily based on true events, this book sucked me in from the very first page. I can’t wait to read more of her work.
An interesting mystery as historical fiction-the bit of history at the end of the book by the author has me interested in learning more about the actual history of the people the book is based around. An art focus for those so interested.
Loved this Knives Out thriller-esque and historical fiction masterpiece that felt a lot like I was visualizing Bridgerton especially during the early 1900s. I DESPISED Miss Helen and Mr. Frick and I think that was the author's intention. It was clear from reading the author's note, Davis did a lot of background on The Frick Collection and combining some facts about a super model back in the 1900s to create a combination that was thrilling and mysterious. I loved Veronica's similarities and eventual collision with Lillian. I would love to read more of Davis's novels!
