A young woman of Asian/American parentage has lived in seven different countries and is anxious to find a place she could call home. An unusual sale of rare medieval manuscripts sends her and doctor-cum-art journalist on a quest into the dark world of stolen art.
When their earnest search for clues whispers of old thieves and leads to the unexpected, they raise more questions about an esoteric sometimes unscrupulous art world that defy easy answers.
Will this quest reward Clarissa with the sense of home she longs for? This cross-genre literary tale of self-discovery, art mystery, travel, and love is based on the actual theft by an American soldier of illuminated manuscripts during World War II.
