Over a century later, a man recognises a portrait in an Auckland gallery, and demands it back. A terrifying pandemic is the last thing they need. As the ravages of World War One escalate, fear is constant, but compassion brings unexpected consequences. His picture framing skills establish him with the artists of Dunedin in 1863, but he has many doubts, and many more obstacles to overcome.įifty years on, Luciano, a rakish Italian portrait artist on the run from his past, turns up at the Invercargill branch of Borgoni Picture Framers seeking refuge.
He must succeed if he is to free his beloved wife, held captive by her father in Melbourne. Will the secrets of the past destroy an artist’s legacy?
