Soon, she finds herself sitting before Leonardo da Vinci, who wants to ensure his own place in the ducal palace by painting his most ambitious portrait to date.

Two women, separated by 500 years, are swept up in the tide of history as one painting stands at the center of their quests for their own destinies."--Publisher description.
