Woman on Fire by Lisa Barr

One of the most hotly anticipated books coming from the US this year, Woman on Fire is attracting huge buzz. Combining a thrilling, sexy narrative, with a backstory centred around an international art scandal and a Nazi-looted masterpiece, Woman on Fire is perfect for fans of the breakout bestsellers, Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl and L.S. Hilton's Maestra. Sharon Stone has optioned the rights to produce and star in the film adaptation.

A young journalist embroiled in an international art scandal centred around a Nazi-looted  masterpiece, forcing the ultimate showdown between passion and possession, lovers and liars, history and truth. 

Meanwhile, in Europe, provocative and powerful Margaux de Laurent also searches for the  painting. Heir to her art collector family's millions, Margaux is a cunning gallerist who gets everything she wants. The only thing standing in her way is Jules. Yet Jules has resources of her own, including Adam Baum, Ellis's grandson. A recovering addict and artist in his own right, Adam was once in Margaux's clutches, and he'll do anything to help Jules locate the painting before Margaux.

 
A thrilling tale of secrets, love, and sacrifice, Woman on Fire tells the story of a remarkable woman and an exquisite work of art that burns bright, moving through hands, hearts, and history.
