Ann Hood- The Stolen Child
For decades, Nick Burns has been haunted by a decision he made as a young soldier in World War I, when a French artist he\u2019d befriended thrust both her paintings and her baby into his hands\u2014and disappeared. In 1974, with only months left to live, Nick enlists Jenny, a college dropout desperate for adventure, to help him unravel the mystery. The journey leads them from Paris galleries and provincial towns to a surprising place: the Museum of Tears, the life\u2019s work of a lonely Italian craftsman. Determined to find the baby and the artist, hopeless romantic Jenny and curmudgeonly Nick must reckon with regret, betrayal, and the lives they\u2019ve left behind.
