In the shadow of Nazi-occupied France, a legacy is concealed, waiting silently to be reclaimed.

Decades later, Paris art restorer Amelia Beckett is used to peeling back layers of history. But when a seemingly ordinary heirloom lands in her studio, her careful routine is shattered by a cryptic discovery pointing to a lost chapter of Europe’s wartime past. Drawn into a mystery spanning generations—and pursued by someone determined to keep old betrayals buried—Amelia must decide how far she’s willing to go to uncover what was deliberately hidden.

The Portrait of Eloise Leclair blends art, history, love, and suspense in an atmospheric dual-timeline story. From the glittering salons of 1940s Paris to the vibrant pulse of the contemporary art world, Amelia’s relentless pursuit of truth unveils the secrets and sacrifices of those who came before her. As fragments of forgotten lives and hidden loyalties resurface, two eras collide, revealing a legacy far greater than the canvas it’s painted on—one that could unravel not just the past, but the present itself.
