| Summary: |
Discovered on a freezing Moscow street by a Russian billionaire, Natasha Leonova lived for seven years under his protection, immersed in rarefied luxury, while he pursues his activities in a dark world that she guesses at but never sees. Natasha's job is to keep Vladimir happy, ask no questions, and be discreet. Theo Luca is the son of a world famous, difficult artist, Lorenzo Luca, who left his devoted muse/now restaurateur wife and son with a fortune in artwork they refuse to sell, reminiscent of Picasso and La Colombe D'or in St-Paul-de-Vence. Theo becomes obsessed with Natasha; Vladimir with Luca's artwork; both become dangerous obsessions. |
