Beschreibung
Bestselling author Donna Russo Morin captivates readers once again with the conclusion of her Da Vinci's Disciples Trilogy, delivering an exhilarating narrative that shines a light on the secret women artists of Florence, all under the guidance of the iconic Leonardo Da Vinci.
As the infamous "Bonfire of the Vanities" looms, a courageous group of female artists, known as Da Vinci's Disciples, must bravely maneuver through a city torn apart by religious fanaticism. With Leonardo mentoring them, they face the stifling ideals of Fra Girolamo Savonarola, a fervent figure whose radical campaign poses a dire threat to the very existence of art and literature, the very existence of the Disciples themselves.
Alongside the ambitious young sculptor Michelangelo, these artists dare to risk everything, launching an underground operation to smuggle precious works out of the clutches of destruction in Florence.
In THE FLAMES OF FLORENCE, Donna Russo Morin weaves a powerful historical tale that celebrates bravery and solidarity amid overwhelming odds, ensuring readers are left on the edge of their seats.
"Illicit plots, mysterious paintings, and Leonardo da Vinci all have their part to play in this delicious, heart-pounding work." ―Kate Quinn, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Alice Network
