After surviving the accident that took her mother's life, Claire Broussard has worked hard to escape her small Louisiana hometown. Lately, feeling something is lacking, Claire leaves her lucrative job in Chicago to return home and care for her ailing grandmother. When she unearths a sculpture that her great-grandfather sent home from Paris after World War II, her grandmother urges Claire to discover its history. She travels to Paris, where the sculpture, known only as "L'inconnue"-- the Unknown Woman-- was created. With the help of a surly sculptor, Claire discovers a cache of letters that offer insight into the life of the Belle Epoque woman immortalized in the work of art... and begins to discover secrets of her own. |
