About the book
When Hollywood auctioneer Emsley Wilson discovers her famous grandmother's diary while decluttering her New York brownstone, she is in for a surprise. The diary does not belong to her grandmother, but to Johanna Bonger, Vincent van Gogh's sister-in-law.
Johanna inherited Vincent van Gogh's paintings, which were her only possessions and seemingly worthless. As a 28-year-old widow with a baby in the 1800s, living in Paris where she barely spoke the language and had no means of financial support, Johanna managed to bring Vincent's legacy to the world.
For Emsley, this revelation couldn't have come at a more opportune moment. As her business falters, a sudden romance enters her life, and family secrets come to light, she wonders if the answers lie in the past.
