Synopsis
Bohemian Paris in the 1880s. Exotic, strange and exciting, especially to young English sculptor Jessie Lipscomb, who joins her friend Camille to become a protégée of the great Auguste Rodin.

But when Rodin and Camille embark on a scandalous affair, Jessie is cast as their unwilling go-between and their friendship unravels. Years later she tracks her down to an insane asylum where Camille tells her an explosive secret. Can their friendship survive the betrayal?

Review
"An intense and satisfying story - an insight into the constraints on passionate and talented women in the Parisian art world at the turn of the century. It will haunt you." - Sara Sheridan "A beautifully written evocation of the Parisian art scene of the late 1800s - it is a mesmerising canvas of love, friendship and betrayal." Laura Marney "Jessie's adventures as a woman artist in 1880s Paris completely captivated me. A wonderful story." - Carmen Reid
