If you're looking for a book that's both fun and intriguing, then Fiona Davis' latest novel, The Frick Art Heist, is definitely worth checking out. The book revolves around two female protagonists, Lillian Carter and Veronica Weber, who are separated by nearly fifty years but are tied together by their connection to one of New York City's most impressive mansions, the Frick mansion, which was converted into a museum. The story starts in 1919 with Lillian, who had been one of the most sought-after artists’ models in New York City with statues based on her figure gracing landmarks from the Plaza Hotel to the Brooklyn Bridge. However, her life takes a sudden turn after losing her mother to the Spanish flu outbreak. With her work dried up and a scandal looming, Lillian stumbles upon an employment opportunity at the Frick mansion, which feels almost fateful as the building bears her own visage. Soon enough, she becomes a private secretary to the imperious and demanding Helen Frick, the daughter and heiress of industrialist and art patron Henry Clay Frick, and her life becomes deeply intertwined with that of the family, pulling her into a tangled web of romantic trysts, stolen jewels, and family drama that runs so deep, the stakes just may be life or death. Fast forward fifty years later, we meet Veronica Weber, a mod English model trying to make her mark in New York City. After being dismissed from a Vogue shoot taking place at the Frick Collection, she chances upon a series of hidden messages in the museum that sets her and Joshua, a charming intern/budding art curator, on a hunt that could not only solve Veronica's financial woes but could finally reveal the truth behind a decades-old murder in the infamous Frick family. The Frick Art Heist is a well-researched novel that spares no detail in bringing the story to life. Fiona Davis does an excellent job of interweaving the two storylines, switching between the past and present seamlessly, and keeping the reader engaged in both narratives. The characters are well-drawn and multi-dimensional, making it easy to empathize with their struggles and cheer them on as they navigate the challenges they encounter. One aspect that makes this book stand out is the author's love for art and history, which shines through every page. The Frick Collection has an impressive collection of works by the likes of Vermeer, Holbein, and Rembrandt, among others, and the author takes care to highlight some of these pieces, giving readers a glimpse into the world of art curation and the lives of the Frick family. The descriptions are vivid and transport the reader to a different era, immersing them in the story's setting and making them feel like they're right there with the characters. Overall, The Frick Art Heist is a delightful read that combines history, art, and mystery in a fun and entertaining package. Whether you're a fan of historical fiction, art, or simply a good mystery, this book is well worth your time. It's a captivating novel that will keep you guessing until the very end, and one that you won't soon forget.

However, her life takes a sudden turn after losing her mother to the Spanish flu outbreak. With her work dried up and a scandal looming, Lillian stumbles upon an employment opportunity at the Frick mansion, which feels almost fateful as the building bears her own visage. Soon enough, she becomes a private secretary to the imperious and demanding Helen Frick, the daughter and heiress of industrialist and art patron Henry Clay Frick, and her life becomes deeply intertwined with that of the family, pulling her into a tangled web of romantic trysts, stolen jewels, and family drama that runs so deep, the stakes just may be life or death. Fast forward fifty years later, we meet Veronica Weber, a mod English model trying to make her mark in New York City. After being dismissed from a Vogue shoot taking place at the Frick Collection, she chances upon a series of hidden messages in the museum that sets her and Joshua, a charming intern/budding art curator, on a hunt that could not only solve Veronica's financial woes but could finally reveal the truth behind a decades-old murder in the infamous Frick family. The Frick Art Heist is a well-researched novel that spares no detail in bringing the story to life. Fiona Davis does an excellent job of interweaving the two storylines, switching between the past and present seamlessly, and keeping the reader engaged in both narratives. The characters are well-drawn and multi-dimensional, making it easy to empathize with their struggles and cheer them on as they navigate the challenges they encounter. One aspect that makes this book stand out is the author's love for art and history, which shines through every page. The Frick Collection has an impressive collection of works by the likes of Vermeer, Holbein, and Rembrandt, among others, and the author takes care to highlight some of these pieces, giving readers a glimpse into the world of art curation and the lives of the Frick family. The descriptions are vivid and transport the reader to a different era, immersing them in the story's setting and making them feel like they're right there with the characters. Overall, The Frick Art Heist is a delightful read that combines history, art, and mystery in a fun and entertaining package. Whether you're a fan of historical fiction, art, or simply a good mystery, this book is well worth your time. It's a captivating novel that will keep you guessing until the very end, and one that you won't soon forget.
