Win 10 paperback copies of THE SEEKER OF LOST PAINTINGS by Sarah Freethy

For Adults

Simon & Schuster are pleased to be offering a limited number of reading groups and book clubs ten copies of THE SEEKER OF LOST PAINTINGS by Sarah Freethy, an unforgettable story of love and betrayal across the decades from the author of THE PORCELAIN MAKER.

Here’s a little more information:

Rome 1939
Arriving in Rome to work for the wealthy Montefalco family, Maddalena is homesick and alone. She finds solace – and love – in the beauty of the city, but as the war in Nazi-occupied Italy rages, she must make a devastating choice.

London, 1997
After her mother Maddalena’s death, Beatrice Fremont discovers a fragment of a painting and a letter that sends her on a hunt to Rome. Helping her is art dealer Jude Adler, who’s convinced they are looking for a lost Caravaggio. For Jude, this could be the find of a lifetime; but for Beatrice their search uncovers a shocking secret and the answer to a mystery kept hidden for years.

When applying for copies, please ensure you include details of your club, as well as your postal address and the name to mark the parcel FAO.
