Spotlight and Giveaway: Woman on Fire

Today we are celebrating the publication week for Woman on Fire by Lisa Barr. We're hearing a lot of great buzz about this novel and are excited to read it soon. In the meantime, check out Jenny's review at Book Coffee Happy. Thanks to Get Red PR, we have one copy to give away!

After talking her way into a job with Dan Mansfield, the leading investigative reporter in Chicago, rising young journalist Jules Roth is given an unusual, and very secret, assignment. Dan needs her to locate a painting stolen by the Nazis more than 75 years earlier: legendary Expressionist artist Ernst Engel’s most famous work, Woman on Fire. 

World-renowned shoe designer Ellis Baum wants the portrait of a beautiful, mysterious woman, for deeply personal reasons, and has enlisted Dan’s help to find it. But Jules doesn’t have much time; the famous designer is dying. 

Meanwhile, in Europe, provocative and powerful Margaux de Laurent is also searching 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 the passionate and determined Jules has unexpected resources of her own, including Adam Chase, Ellis’s grandson. A recovering addict and brilliant artist in his own right, Adam was once in Margaux’s clutches. He knows how ruthless she is, and he’ll do anything to help Jules locate the painting before Margaux gets to it first.

A thrilling tale of secrets, love, and sacrifice that illuminates the destructive cruelty of war and greed and the triumphant power of beauty and love, 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.
